I used a 1/2" Phenolic (wood) spacer (divided plenum) to act as a heat shield for carb. improved hot restarts significantly

Pretty sure this was it mazon.com/Edelbrock-8725-CARBURETOR-SPACER/dp/B00062Z30Y/ref=asc_df_B00062Z30Y/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312697294768&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=16184561260513898188&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9007369&hvtargid=pla-571575275475&psc=1
