Carb addapter

["Ian Cudmore" <yahootoo@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a 77 232 in my gremmy, on it i have the Offenhauser 4v intake and a 
holly 400cfm carb.
due to the way the carb sits on the intake it was nessicary to change the 
throttle cable from the short stock one. This meant that the kickdown wasn't 
hooked up either as the cable had to go directly to the carb. Recently i got 
street scoop (the ones with 3 butterfly plates that open with the throttle) 
and took the kickdown linkage off of the eagle i stole the hood from. this 
bracket was moddified and with the help of a cable i fabricated as well 
works like a charm. however, it is my belief that if was to rotate the 
carburetor 90* i can use the stock throttle cable, use my fabbed cable for 
the kickdown and the scoop linkage directly to the carb as it is designed to 
do.

the only problem is that i have never heard of this carb turning spacer. has 
anyone ever seen one? or is my easiest bet just to break out the drill press 
and have some fun? my guess is that they dont exist on a shelf anywere 
waiting for me to buy one. i cant imagine that this would be a common 
moddification
