Description

You can significantly improve your engine’s performance and precisely tune your intake manifold with the Mastodon Carburettor Spacer. This essential component is available in three thicknesses: 1/2-inch, 1-inch, and 2-inch. It is constructed from premium, heat-insulating phenolic material. As a result, you dramatically reduce heat transfer from your intake manifold to the carburettor. The ported, 4-hole design is ideal for you if you want to maintain fuel velocity while gaining the benefits of a cooler, denser fuel charge. As a trusted supplier in Alberton, Gauteng, we provide you with top-tier performance parts to maximize your engine’s efficiency. Get  your Mastodon Carburettor Spacer now!

Key Features

• Phenolic Construction: This material is an excellent thermal barrier. Consequently, it virtually eliminates heat transfer to the carburettor base. This prevents fuel from boiling and vaporizing.
• Multiple Thicknesses (1/2″, 1″, 2″): This allows you to tune your intake for specific needs. The 1/2-inch option is for maximum heat insulation with minimal hood clearance impact. The 2-inch option provides maximum plenum volume for increased mid-range torque.
• Ported 4-Hole Design: The individual bores are contoured to match the manifold ports. This ensures smooth flow transition. It also helps to maintain and increase air velocity.
• Prevents Vapour Lock: By keeping the carburettor cooler, this spacer stops the fuel inside the bowls from vaporizing. This ensures reliable starting and consistent idling.
• Improves Fuel Atomization: Colder fuel is denser. It mixes better with air. This results in more complete combustion and a noticeable increase in horsepower.

Why Choose the Mastodon Carburettor Spacer?

This carburettor spacer is an excellent choice for you because it offers a precise tuning tool for your intake system. You get the proven power upgrade through thermal efficiency. A hot carburettor delivers hot, thin air and vaporized fuel. This immediately robs your engine of power. By choosing this phenolic spacer, you insulate the carburettor completely. This ensures that the air/fuel mixture remains cold and dense until it enters the combustion chamber. Furthermore, the option to choose from 1/2″, 1″, or 2″ lets you customize your plenum volume. This helps you dial in the torque curve exactly where you need it. Ultimately, this is a vital, versatile upgrade that provides tangible benefits in both drivability and peak power output.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do I choose the right thickness (1/2″, 1″, or 2″)?
   You should choose based on your performance goal and hood clearance. The 1/2″ is for heat insulation and minimal clearance impact. The 1″ is a popular balance of both. The 2″ is for maximum torque and plenum volume. You must verify your hood clearance before you purchase.
2. What is the main benefit of a phenolic spacer?
   The main benefit is superior heat insulation. Phenolic material dramatically reduces the transfer of heat from the intake manifold to the carburettor. This keeps the fuel cooler.
3. What is “porting” on a spacer?
   “Porting” means the bores are precisely shaped. They are designed to maximize airflow and fuel velocity. This ensures a smooth, unrestricted path for the air/fuel mixture into your engine.
4. Will the 2″ spacer cause clearance issues under my hood?
   A 2-inch spacer adds over 50mm to your carburettor height. You must measure the distance between your air cleaner and the underside of your bonnet. This will ensure you have adequate clearance for the tallest option.
5. What is vapour lock and how does this prevent it?
   Vapour lock occurs when fuel boils in the carburettor or fuel lines. This creates air bubbles. It stops fuel delivery. By keeping the carburettor cooler, the phenolic spacer prevents the fuel from boiling.
6. Does this include gaskets and studs?
   Yes, this spacer typically comes as a complete kit. It includes the necessary gaskets for a top and bottom seal. It also includes longer studs for secure installation.
7. Do you offer nationwide shipping?
   Yes, we offer fast and reliable nationwide shipping across South Africa. You can order from anywhere in the country. All orders are processed and shipped from our location in Alberton.
