1970 Mustang 428 CJ carburetor spacer and gasket

(1/1)

Myfo28:
About to install rebuilt D0ZF-AB carburetor on my 1970 Mustang 428 CJ with reproduction spacer and gasket.  Should the gasket be installed as shown or should it be trimmed to match the spacer?  Thanks

J_Speegle:
Would install as shown without trimming the tabs for your year and application

All the carb to spacer gaskets I've seen are 4 hole, but spacer to aluminum intake is open plenum while spacer to cast iron intake is again 4 hole.

Myfo28:
Thank you both!

J_Speegle:
Just make sure the the diameter of the holes in the carb base plate, intake and spacer (well when they have 4  holes) all have the same diameter.

There are gaskets with all kinds of configurations but not normally factory ones ;)
