Now he has a MAF, long tube headers with true duals, JET programmer, TB spacer and he is still slower than me, lol. The Ford RCSB is too heavy to even worry about.
Ok lets review.. TB spacers have not been proven to offer any performance gains. In fact the dynos have shown a LOSS of power due to heat retention. Save your money and put it towards a real mod.

Like some other people said, put some money up on it. You probably won't even have to race them then and can save the gas. I'm pretty confident you'll embarrass those trucks if you hook good.
