Hey All,

Do you need to use a spacer between the manifold and the carby? (HS4)

What is the purpose of them anyway?

Thanks!

I think the throttle cable brackets are designed to use them and might be at slightly the wrong angle without them? I think I have a spare alloy one if you are interested?

Righto, I guess I just need to do a test fit and see what happens.

The only other issue I can see is the un-threaded section of the stud on the manifold might be too big without a spacer to take up some of the room.

Thanks for the offer timmy, i'll let you know if I need it.
