SixPack Aircleaner Spacer - 02/22/11 03:47 AM
I need to raise my sixpack aircleaner to clear my distributor and fuel rail. Does anyone make a 1" spacer that will fit the holly carbs?

Hi John

You can put spacers under the carbs but then you need to dink with the throttle linkage and the return spring.

someone on epay sells a billet 6pak spacer - looks like a nice piece - don't know how effective it is - try a search - sometimes it's up there...ooops just realized your question - after my coffee - this is for raising the carbs higher off of the intske - not raising the aircleaner- sorry

I have 1/2" spacers under my carbs because the center one has meth jets in it. Why does your lid hit the fuel line? did you install it upside down? Mine drops way down and isn't even close. If you raise the air cleaner you are going to put it into the hood. I had zero room w/ my stock hood so I had to go get a glass cowl hood.

He has demon carbs , fuel inlet is in a different location than the standard Holley carb.
Yeah, that's it. I know some CNC shops locally but it would be too costly
Sounds like something easy to whip up if you have access to a CNC.

It is a lowdeck motor with an airgrabber so I need at least and inch raised to get the aircleaner in the correct position

I'd have a based fabbed up then. Not sure you can "space" an entire inch out.

Sure you could , make a spacer that looks like the gasket , we have a prototrak on a bridgeport , make a drawing and crank out 3 in a heartbeat ... ok maybe 2 heartbeats ...
