carb spacer i.d.

Post by ezernut9mm »

did ford ever use a factory 2bbl phenolic spacer? the reason i ask it that i got one off the 67 i parted. there are no markings at all on it. the engine looked to be very original, but i have not seen one of these for a 2bbl even in catalogs and i have been looking for a long time for one to replace the aluminium one that i currently have.
so, any of you 67 fe owners have a phenolic carb spacer or just the aluminium type?

I don't know about the 67 for shure, but my 72 had one. The pcv valve hose connected to the back of it.

yes the pvc goes to the back, but it was phenolic and not aluminium?

I looked high and low for one when my 390 was perking the fuel. I found a high dollar on in a racing catalog but that was all.
