coolant through carb spacer?

By Gord - 07/12/2003 8:20:45 PM; IP 24.64.223.204

I drive my 390 Galaxie only in the summer in the Pacific Northwest and was thinking that I probably don't need the coolant passing through the carb spacer of the 4BBL. Is it OK to by-pass the carb spacer and route the heater hose direct to the water pump? How about driveability? Isn't a cooler fuel charge better for performance as well?

This thread, so far...
