I have a 1" 4 hole Ford spacer with water heat plumbed in it.

It's alive! Holy cow! The 480 cfm carb, combined with the EFI manifolds, Offy DP and the 3.50 gearing has turned this old truck into a dragster! I ended up not hooking up the water heat to the carb spacer. Too many hoses! I have the intake heat though!

I would be interested in buying an extra Offy intake if you have one that you are not using.

Thanks

I wouldn't think that's the case. Neither of mine are supported by the exhaust and have been on some very rough trails and excursions without breaking in any way.

Edit: oops, just saw that was from last month. :-)
