I have located a source for "NEW" carb base spacers on ebay. It comes with the spacer two gaskets and studs and nuts. there are two versions of the same kit. One has the standard height spacer the other has a 1/2" sapcer. I'm not sure what is the correct thickness that is required.

Thanks. I thought that was a great price, and all the parts in one lot.
I went for the 1/2" one, but a heads up.... It was the last one that was listed. Don't fear though, they have a direct phone number on their auction listings, and it sounds like they'd be happy to put any package together that you need.

He has listed more on ebay. I have updated the link.

the original spacers where 3/8" thick.
the 1/4 or 1/2 inch should be fine. if you use the 1/2" then the nuts will be flush with the top of the original studs.
new studs are included in these kits though
you can also get them from his website.

Steve,

interesting
they both say they fit the 2G holly.
also i cant tell by the previous posts if someone has bought AND installed this ebay spacer
-
I bought the 1/4" spacer and the 1/2' spacer from the ebay seller to test fit the parts and both fit perfectly to the intake manifold. I have taken photos of just the test fitting of both the 1/4 and 1/2 inch spacers and you can decide for yourselves which size you wish to use.

Scotty,
Thanks for the pics, I will contact dashmans this week.
