Phenolic carb spacer question

Hi. I bought a 1/4" Phenolic spacer to help with heat soak for my Rochester 4GC I just installed. The Phenolic spacer I bought looks like a bunch of cardboard compressed together. My question is, at what torque to I tightened the carb mounting nuts too? Thanks

I just did my taxes and reviewed my SS statement. Thanks to the current administration it looks like I will only have to work till noon on the day of my funeral.
