![]() Steeda sells a machined aluminum spacer which they dyno tested (supposedly)

![]() I bought a phenolic one off of E-Bay for $30. Difference being, aluminum soaks up heat and transfers it to the air coming into the intake, phenolic does not. Hell, if I payed $30 for 2 rwhp then its the cheapest power I picked up yet. No dyno #'s though. Is'nt that always the case ![]()

![]() The INTAKE spacer works, more plenum volume results in more air available for a given intake stroke. Throttle body spacers, especially the "swirl" type are really a waste of money on a EFI Ford. The air has to make to many directional changes for the "swirl" to survive and be of any use.
