Does a carb spacer help performance any? Also which is better a 1" or a 2"?

Spacer definitely helps, by adding additional volume to the plenum area. Use as much spacer as you can fit under the hood.

Spacer do work!

4 circle ones for torque and open ones for hp. I prefer the open ones seem to work better.
