?? for the Dyno guy's

With all your testing and Dyno expreience w/A headed engines and the NEW A460 intake. What carb spacer IF ANY one OR type,stands out to perform better on this engine. I'm asking this because I will be buying a 2" spacer for mine in the near future to get my carb height where I want it.
My uneducated thinking would lead me to believe that different spacers will work better/worse on different intakes because of runner length,volumn, and height. I think my intake is a well designed intake and I know lots of different combos have been tested on it so I'm curious to what you have to tell me.

Rick I have an HVH super sucker and if I didn't have it I would have a Jomar taper sucker.....

The one inch Jomar power cone spacers make more power than no spacer or a one inch open spacer . I've had some high HP engines that I though would like a 1/2" open spacer under the 1" Jomar spacer....wrong . It's best to put the carb where the engine wants it not where you want it

I understand that Lem,but i'm in a predicament w/hood clearance. W/no spacer my carb top is only 1" from the top of my 6" cowl. So i'm raising it above it and cutting out the cowl and adding a scoop on the carb. Hard to explain exactly

Call me , if you wish .

Use the 1" Jomar and put some kind of riser between the top of the carb and bottom of the scoop.

Thats an idea

Think what I might do is just buy a pentroof single 4 top for my TFS TR and it should be about right
