Default PROJECT AVS-2

I've been creeping along on a project engine and one of the things that became evident was carburation would have to be something modern,
as OE carbs for 1966 sprints are nonexistent. So enter Edelbrocks 2VS 4bbl.
This was chosen mainly due to the number of Cammers already using them.
Yes, there are other options but after much consideration, I figured I too would go this route.

So I set up my Manifold on a mockup stand and have started working out the details to get it functional without overthinking this setup.

The first thing to address is butterfly clearance, clearly dealing with a completely different butterfly arrangement.

So I picked up a readily available spacer. .5" seems to be the norm.
