Anyone know where I can find the 4 barrel Holley teapot spacer for the 55/56 Fords? My buddy tells me that he has a lot of heat between the carb and intake...

You can buy two or three gaskets and just stack them, easiest way.

that's what I told Roger to do, but he is trying to find one of these original spacers - weren't they a thick paper stack anyway?

I had some open ones made out of phenolic material.  They are not 4 hole but open. I have an extra one $25.00.

Wasn't the original spacer just 5 gaskets stapled together ?

'55 used a stack of the old asbestos type gaskets stapled together, '56 and '57 2-4s used a phenolic spacer, 1/2" thick.
