Phenolic or Nitrile Rubber Composite
Which one do you think is better? I am experiencing fuel boiling in edelbrock carb. Rubber on is made by edelbrock, but I don't know if it would be the way to go. Don't know much about it, and debating to spend a little extra and get phenolic one.

Re: Phenolic or Nitrile Rubber Composite
I've always used phenolic spacers with good results.

Re: Phenolic or Nitrile Rubber Composite
be sure to check all the fuel lines i had one line touching the lower radiator hose and making some wicked vapor lock. Went to AN lines with heat shield (massive overkill, it just looked pretty) and cleared it right up. Your intakes got to be getting pretty hot to boil fuel in the bowls. If all your lines are clear and its still happening go with the phenolic spacer, but id be sure its not something else first. Good luck
