Re: TBI spacer

I don't have that "graphic' capability at my place. It has to be cheap to get JUST the base gasket sent to you. use that as the ultimate template and you will need a gasket anyway, actually two of them. yes it can make a SLIGHT difference, but it does make the truck a bit more cold blooded, lopes like it has cam. lol, then again i DOUBT that cold is a major problem in most of Jordan. crossy

FYI=You will need longer bolts.

Re: TBI spacer

The 4.3, 5.0 and 5.7 engines use exactly the same TB, but different injectors. PM me with e-mail address.
