I was looking at the the Wilson Manifold web site for a carb spacer, I dont know the advantages or disadvantages of running a 4 hole spacer versus an open, My manifold is an M1 Dominator single plane. What would be my best choice?
Thanks

I have dyno tested the Wilson Manifold 1.5 inch dominator reversion spacers on a Team G Dominator intake with a Domintor carb, it was worth 8 hp and some more torque , I don't remember the exact increase in torque, sorry

Cab, or anyone else. Has anyone ever tested Tapered Spacers, such as the Wilson or HVH, and what situations/configurations do they work best in?


Yeah, it's got a smallblock.

How soon???? Inquiring minds want to know....





Here is some info: The wheel base is going to be around 118" and the car should be a little lighter.It will have a 6.00 cert .

I hope to have it at SGMP in May but there is alot of work to do.

Its not quite as cut and dry as this works and this
doesnt.... if you need the volosity for the carb a
4 hole works better... but if you are looking for
more plenum the open spacer works better. The intake
itself that you are using makes a difference... but
on almost all intakes a spacer helps with the exception
of tunnel rams(and all that does is move things in
the rpm range).

There are two version of thr reversion spaces that I know of, the one that Wilson makes like in my picture( there part #024130) and a thinner two piece version that Rehr and Morrison sells. How they work is beyond me other than blocking reversion into the carb, I think They both work as I have seen, heard and tested the results on motors on engine dynos

anyone ever used the Wilson spacer for a Thermoquad carb that moves the carb forward about .300 ?
