I have just installed an Edelbrock 7576 Air Gap manifold on my 360cid crate motor that I run in Crate Motor class. I have a 1” open spacer under the Holley 750 (4150). Would I be better off with a 4 hole, 2 hole or combo of both ½” each? Thanks,
Mike

I would use the 2 hole.
An open spacer above a dual plane with a divider in my mind doesnt make sense. But maybe I'm wrong?

Just seems the 2 or 4 hole would be better at directing the air straight down into the plenum...

POS Dakota, Thanks for the response. Going to the track this weekend, weather permitting. Hope to get a couple of different spacers to try. See what it likes.

I put a 4 hole on my mild 340 and the car picked up a little bit .02-.03 or so. Thats with the 7576 air gap and a 4150 Holley 750.

That's what I would do. if you buy 2 spacers and gain a few hp given the cost per hp these days, and gain with one of them, you;re still ahead of the game.

Good luck!
