IIRC, Bernd found no difference with the spacer. I have a friend with a
'95 Tahoe with a 350 in it and he has gotten almost no improvement from
his $75 machined billet aluminum paperweight.

Tony has directions right on his website -
http://www.quickd.com/instructions.htm - you'll want the TB and S-bolt
directions. Everyone around here keeps saying it's really quick & easy;
I need to pick up a couple tools today and stop in the office to print
the directions out. While you've got everything open and disconnected,
take some TB cleaner and clean up the sensors (while they're off the TB,
obviously) and check inside the intake manifold for oil (if you've been
having a ping problem).
