Carter Thermoquads ~ 'More General Information'

Uh... I may be old school but back in the day I recall people using THICK carb to intake gaskets who ended up bending the carb base and flanges when they Over Tighten... That's not good... That's why they have the thin gaskets...

What I did on my 340 back then to slow the heat transfer to the carb was make a spacer with thin side walls in the spacer itself to slow the transfer of ~HEAT~ ... Plus the use of TWO Gaskets !!!

Here is a picture of the spacer I used on my Edelbrock Tarantula... It was also machine matched to the top of intake and pinned....

Just hoping this gives someone an idea... sharing my thoughts...
