Title: Holley Carb to Ford Spacer Gasket Question
Post by: SHELB66 on August 25, 2018, 04:58:41 PM
I'm trying to figure which would be the correct carb to spacer (Ford 1" aluminum) gasket to use when utilizing a Holley 6919 600cfm carb.  The engine is a 289 4bbl in a '66 Mustang GT.  Should it be the same gasket that is used between the spacer and the manifold?  That one has the 4 equal size bores.  Any help would be greatly appreciated as I want to avoid any potential vacuum leaks.  I have attached a picture of the underside of the carb.

As long as the sealing surface on the perimeter of the carb is clean and flat and the intake surface is the same you will not have any problems with leaks. You can use both the open type or the holes type all will work good luck! ;)

Thank you, my friend!  That helps me get this car back on the road again after many, many years in storage.  Much appreciated!
