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 .

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...
