Post a pic of what you have.... Sounds like you have some extra parts. Spacer is not going to do much for you anyway.

those are spacers and longer bolts for the throttle linkage plate...the plate that bolts to the manifold and holds the throttle cable, kickdown cable, ect.
just keeps the linkage straight with the throttle body

the three cylinders are spacers for your throttle/cruise cable bracket....it needs to be raised along with the TB....remove the three 'short' bolts...insert the spacers and replace with 'long' bolts.
