carb spacer 66Hertz
« on: August 23, 2010, 09:45:51 AM »
        I am working on a 1966Hertz car. Ineed to know if there should be a carb spacer between the Cobra hi-rise intake and the Autolite 4100 carb. I have heard you will have vacuum leaks if no spacer is used. Is this correct?      Thanks,  Doug

Don't recall ever seeing a 66 Shelby with a spacer between the carb and intake originally. Plenty of examples of cars running with no spacers
