No, the spacers were for carb clearance, which always seemed a bit odd to me. And my moving the K down, that likely put the right valve cover into the rt shock tower panel. Sorry if my earlier post was confusing in that regard.
Yes, unless someone has limited hood clearance, you open a whole can of worms by using the k frame spacers. It made the early cars without the modified steering linkage all wonky running down the track.
