    Block Spacer???'s

    Hey guys..

    my project took a unexpected turn for the worse, and I now am in search of a block spacer. I've read quite a bit of posts on here about people doing this, but none seem to mention where they are getting them from.

    Anyways, any help would be appreciated.

    It's for the gs550-650 motor. I plan on shimming at the base gasket a few mm's at most. Running 2 head gaskets/base gasket's isn't gonna cut it either... need a solid spacer.

    okay, well i've found two sites, falicon and schnitz but they both only have the gs1100/1150 listed for their spacers... Guess i'll try emailing them in the morning to see if they'll do a custom one for me.

    Any other suggestions guys?

      I use copper base gaskets (drag race) and they come in various thicknesses to set the deck height. I have used spacers with gaskets and sometimes have doubled up on gaskets to get the stackup I need. I use Yamabond (gray stuff) to seal them. The gaskets and spacers I use have all been made by Cometic. I got my last one from MTC because they get some sort of a price brake. I am sure Cometic would take money from you just like anyone else....
