Sleepy that is just a guess at this point.... every combo seems to like something different.... but knowing your setup for now and educated guess would be the 1"  :working:

here is my vote and not a bad price.... I ran these under my old dual quad setup and the throttle response was real good....

If its gonna be a 1" spacer what about this one? Its only 12 bucks and its plastic so it will not transfer heat from the intake to the carb.   :dunno:

Plastic would be good. :2thumbs: Anything you do to decrease the temp of the fuel will add HP. That's why I prefer electric pumps to the mechanical ones bolted to the hot motor.

A spacer is an awesome way to prevent vapor lock. My fuel bowls feel much cooler than the intake. In my case, I found that my car liked the open spacer alot more than the 4-hole variety.  Like was mentioned, every engine combo will like something different.
