We have been waiting for an order. Once we had an order we would get going. Once we get the first order it would take a few weeks to be made. CAD work is done.

I have a few questions.
1. Should I be worried about any contact of the intake with the hood?
2. Do I have to run 2 intake gasket sets (one on each side of the spacer), or does the spacer serve as a gasket in itself?
3. At 3/16", I shouldn't have to run longer bolts, correct?

Thanks again!

Oh yeah, almost forgot, order placed and paid for. If it helps keep heat from the intake it's worth it to me but I think it will also help in plug wire swaps with the added height. Looking forward to seeing what they do.

1. No
2. No but I will double check.
3. No

Just as a note on the longer bolt requirements. Those bolts are already easy to strip out the threads in the heads so with less threads you should be mindfull of the less torque you can apply to the stock (but now 3/16" shorter) bolts.

Can a newbie ask what the advantage/gain is to be expected from this spacer?

Got it. Thanks. I'll be watching. 3/16" seems like something my custom setup could deal with.

Mine came in shortly after my previous post. Have not had a chance to install yet but they look good. My concern is that they came in six separate pieces and I don't know how to keep them straight as I install the intake. Again, haven't had a chance to install them yet.
