CHESTNUTXE 7,260 Posted December 25, 2015 is it nessarsary to use a carby adaptor or half or 1 inch riser on my square bore factory iron manifold ? im putting a new carby on it soon square bore 750 ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gerg 10,871 Posted December 25, 2015 Square goes on square, spread goes on spread. Just check that the throttle bores on your manifold are same size or bigger than on your carby. Should be right. A spacer can be of benefit as it straightens out the mixture coming off the throttle blades and adds plenum volume. Yours will need a 4-hole (not open). Using a plastic spacer keeps the carby a bit cooler. Basically give it the tallest spacer your bonnet line will allow. Many dyno tests have shown that spacers add power, if only slightly. Very rarely you might go backwards using them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
