4150 carb dimensions

I want to make a spacer similar to this one for a 4150 type carb. Does anyone know the dimensions of the four ports (diameter and centers)?

I don't know the exact dimensions, but if it were me I would spend the couple of bucks on a gasket for one and trace that. You'll be needing one anyway to install it

.

Also, depending on your motor size, RPMs, and intake you may benefit more from an open spacer then a 4-hole...especially if you are running a smaller elbow since it artificially increases plenum volume. Unless you're carb'ed or spraying a huge shot of nitrous(which at that point you should just go direct port anyway) you don't need any magical turbulence reducing merge spikes/spirals/etc.
