The spacers are glued directly to the intake manifold without gaskets. Gaskets between the spacers and heads. Welding is a good idea, but this way I can "back up" if need be ( another intake manifold or different heads). Fastest 300

Glued them to the block and silicone between them and the bottom of the intake. Fastest 300
