Phenolic Carb Spacer , Solid ?
Does anyone know if the Phenolic spacers are solid , 1 inch ?. I am looking to drill and tap one for a Air temperature sensor on a FAST setup . I would like to stay away from aluminum as it might influence the reading . Plus the phenolic ones are much cheaper.

Cool thanks for the info. Rick have you experimented with placement at all ?. Or do you just pick a runner and place were it is not going to get in the way . I am going to run a Victor E EFI intake on a SBC . I was only thinking of a spacer because I relocated the one on my 94 LT1 and did drop the reading . Granted the stock location is right on top of the radiator .
