I need a 2 barrel.carb spacer for my motorcraft 2100. 1975/79's came with 2150's, 1962/74's came with 2100's.
Can't find my egr spacer so i need something else.
The factory installed EGR/Carb spacer plates were aluminum, hot exhaust gasses caused them to melt internally. They also tended to get clogged up with carbon.
FoMoCo "service part replacement" (parts sold at the counter) spacer plates were cast iron.
He's telling you where you can get NOS spacers. How does that not do something for you?
Ya I don't see what is wrong here either Mike. Bill gave him at least an hour of his time by looking this all up and the guy said it is not what he needs?
It is exactly what he asked for and then some.
I just went through this. First your going to have to block off the hole that was covered with the EGR Plate. I used an 11/16th Tap and I used some Aluminum Stock to cut a threaded plug to fill the hole in the Manifold. Then I went to the Auto Parts store and the guy looked up a spacer plate for me and I installed it. Cant remember the name of the company that manufactures the plate but im sure your local parts store could find one for you. The one I bought was about $50 and was 1 inch in thickness. It works great. I will see if I can find the Manufacturer of the plate and get back with you later.

I found the box that the adapter plate was in. Its a (TD Trans Dapt Performance Product) Carburator Spacer Adapter 2137. It works great on my truck so it should work on your.
I just made a spacer out of 1x6 oak plank i had laying around with a open plenum .... The exhaust valve thing i just put a plugged up with some jbweld ... Waiting for it to cure tonight then ill hook it all up tommorow ... Hook it all up and go for a stroll

Cool one JuRB. :)
What I did (in the early 80's) was: tapped the hole to accept a tapered
-cast-iron- pipe plug and jammed it in there best I could then cut it off
and filed it flat. The main reason I wanted cast iron was for its thermal
expansion properties, it'd match the cast iron intake manifold best.
Aluminum expands and contracts about double what iron does.

Like Bill mentioned the aluminum EGR plate on my '75 F150 360FE had
corroded from the inside -real- bad before it was even out of warranty!
LOL :)
Got a recall letter from Ford (I still got it ;) to bring it in for replacement
but never did take it in, had already defeated its function and soon found
parts at the local wrecking yard to "fix" it. Besides, I'd already developed
a pretty bad attitude toward Ford-and-its-stealerships by then. LOL :)
That just got worse later with their use of the word "obsolete". :(
I won't step foot in one of them stinkin' places if I can friggin' help it. :)
Mine's mostly hollow with a passage running around inside it so that air/fuel
mixture whistles back and forth through it from one barrel then the other.
...or one intake manifold "plane" then the other.
Whatever you want to call the action, it does keep the carburetor cool. :)
It's a stock part off of somethin' made by Ford is all I know about it. ;)
There it is, it's still got a little bit of blue paint on it... LOL :)
(nuthin wrong with a choke a hoof rasp and hacksaw can't fix)
Hey, you can see the EGR boss/bump on the intake manifold in that picture
too, if you know where to look.
