Ok folks, I need to redo my intake (again time flies) anyways, looking at the fl400 intake, I need a straight out boot, which the fl has I think, but it looks like the angle the cylinder sits at more of a slant.. this true? anyone know? I suppose I could make a wedge shaped torque spacer to compensate, but I would rather not as it would make for weird bolt angles on the flange... I'm not worried about the carb being over more and airbox misalignment, as I am redoing that as well... anyone have any thoughts? I've got a larger carb, so the 81 intake won't work..

What do you mean by "torque spacer"?
