If this is the Poweraid "Helix Bore" TB Spacer...don't bother. Unless
they've got a REAL dyno sheet (not one of those pre-printed, excel lookin'
BS reports), don't bother.

You'd get more bang for the buck from a Modified TB from Flometrics.

Subject: DML: 4.7 TB Spacer

Admittedly I do not know much about carbeurated engines. Carb spacers
usually help at higher RPM's right? I saw on truckperformance.com today at
work that they have a spacer out for the 4.7. It was like $100, I am not
going to pay that much for a spacer but it got me thinking of making one
myself. Maybe out of a piece of billet at work... you know just to try
out. Dos this seem reasonable that it would help. I know that it does
near nothing for the push rod magnums but maybe the OHC is different....
thoughts?
