Well, I feel a little strange. Just installed the first dual plane manifold I have EVER put on one of my hot rods.
Took off the Weiand X-Celerator and put on an Air gap. My smallblock "you know what" buddies tell me they're getting just as much top end as the old Torker, with way more bottom end and driveability. So I took the plunge.
My question is: Looking at my Holley carb gasket, it appears to me that I need to use a 4 hole type instead of the open square ones I have now. I'm thinking with the dual plane Air Gap, the 2 sides of the carb should definitely be sealed to they're perspective side of the manifold. Wouldn't boltin on the carb with an open gasket more or less defeat the purpose of a dual plane intake?
Waddayathink? Am I crazy...or right?
