Ok, not an advertisement, just throwing my new find out to the world.
Was looking around our store today and found a new part in place of a carburetor spacer I had sent back on recall.

The old one was a 1" alluminum spacer for about 20$. The new one we carry is phenolic and get this, both 4 hole and open!! It has inserts for the middle that slide in. They can't slide all the way through because they are milled at an angle and will only go in one direction. I know some engines like the 4 hole and some like open spacers- thought this would be a great way to try out which one is better. AND, I figure if the open is better, I can always take the 4-hole middle and dremel it to creat an airfoil-esque shape to it, see what it does to fuel atomization and whatnot.

Just thought I'd share my find.

The Swede
