It does not do any good and might be costing you. Drill and tap it for N20

the spacer is not hurting you at all i ran 12.59 with mine so you'll can get off the trip of the spacer hurting him,it is not hurting.
i would do a lsd soon and some drag radials then look at your times you will probably need close to a 2800 to 3000 stall for that cam.

lsd = limited slip differential locker is not good for the street

yes the spacer is a restriction, it disrupts the smooth airflow.
