If I could find a china shop to repop those things, I'd make a killing.  Ain't paying $140 for a spacer LOL. 

  Between me and a local buddy, we go through them by the dozens.  If you want to try one, I'll sell you one for about half that price. 


can you send me info on one of these spacers

great info,i understand.i looked up the 950 ultra hp and it came with 92s square,the guy had 72s and 76s in it with both powervalves blocked.it fell on its face at 3000 rpms.i didnt have any 92s so i put 88s and 96s in it. with a power valve in the front, no fouled plugs,no smoke.it may have been more carb than i needed thats why i bought a new 850.but i didnt have any trouble and it didnt stumble when you hit it from a dead stop

I have come to enjoy the concept of building "all you can get" for daily use....and I mean DAILY use.  It is a fun challenge to make reliable, long term power for a driver......
thats what im talking about

i run 4.11 gears 27 inch slicks every day on the street every where i go.but i guess streetable hp has a wide range depending on the person, i guess i was talking about limits of a everyday driver,dependable,long lasting,not what different people are willing to go down the road in.

i think the 950ultra came with 92s front and back.i ended up leaving the 96s in the back and 84s in the front with a power valve.i may use that carb at the track but my 850 thats on it now has 80s all around still stock.i use it on the street to save gas and run proper

i understand the car needs to be set up right for a small inch fe to perform.i guess the original question meant in a well set up car.i guess a better question is how much power can you get out of a 390

Depends on how far you want to go....750 hp not out of the question, but certainly not "street-able".
where is the street-able cut off at 600,650?

i guess i need to run threw the gears about 6000 and see if it lays down or keeps on keepin on.i bought a used 950 ultra hp off a used carb salesman,he had put 72s in the primarys and 76s in the seconds with no powervalves in it.i took off down the road and it fell flat.i kept going up till i had 92s and 96s in it before i was done.i had it apart 6 times.it would get up and go but got 5mpg or less
