a spacer is not needed. It doesn't do anything.

Unless you are porting and polishing all of that is so much snake oil. Boring the throttle body high flow filters... Spacers.. All pucky not to mention you have to open up the other end as well... And upgrade the fuel system and change the timing advance and regard curves... So yeah save your money and do things that make it more reliable or handle better off road.. Armor.. Chassis stiffened.. So it lives longer..

Bored TB does put more HP at dyno... just sayin.. Lots of tests already done. Yes spacers are pointless I'm aware hahaha!

Anyways. I have 2 99 TBs as "cores" aside from my current one on the jeep.

What can ya offer me?

Aside from my cage in progress there isn't much else I'd do besides stroke the motor and maybe run a 4:1 rubi case. Right now maybe I'm bored with the jeep and have a few TBs layng around that could be bored larger.

Not sure if that was directed at me but I've had this POS for a long time..
