The film Lawrence of Arabia won best picture in the 1960s and an unprecedented number of other awards (including best actor in a supporting role for Mr. Sharif). Highly recommended . "Sharif" has been around a long time .

Injected Perf was kind enough to inform of us the clearance issue, and we had planned on making our own spacer. IP had took the measurements, and located the hardware and such, so they are making the kits for us as well. No sense in reinventing the wheel.
The vendor that you purchase the Cosworth plenum from, can offer you the spacer/hardware kit. $175.

Sorry bro - I know your busy......I wasn't trying to give you a hard time.

I appreciate the feedback.

Tony already has something listed on his site that may work out very well for this application - it's also only $80 vs $175!



They come in 1/4" and 1/2" sizes...
