I run a Wilson 1" 4 hole taper spacer on my 408. For sure I gained 1" between the carb and manifold

I see a lot of folks running the 1" spacers...anyone using the 2" spacers? I have been considering a 2" to go on my Air-gap.

I didn't really get a good test this weekend. I'll try it again next weekend. I messed with the float level when I changed the spacer and the car bogged after launch really bad. So I returned everything back since 1st round was coming. Plus the wind was rediculous so I doubt 5-10 HP would have been noticeable with 50 MPH wind gusts.

I thought the floats were set too high on the front bowl so I lowered it down. But I was a dummy because the car wasn't on level ground and I messed it all up. After the bog run I parked on level ground and raised it back up (set to where fuel just trickles out of the sight plug).

The car ran 6.68 1st T/T - 6.89 bog - Went 6.71 on 6.69 for 1st Round - Then 6.73 on 6.71 for 2nd round. Wasn't real consistent but we had rediculous wind to contend with. It sprinkled just before 2nd round so she was moving around a bit. The weather was just terrible so I really wasn't too upset to pack up and head home.
