Default Will this work at all

I currently have the stock 5.0 h.o. intake, with a 1/2" plenum spacer. I am about to get a real good deal on GT-40 upper and lower. Here is my question. Will that spacer still work, and what is it for? It was on there when I bought the car.. and I have no clue if it'll fit, and if it would be necessary to use it still.

no that spacer will not work, nor is it necessary. the stock 5.0 and GT40/cobra intakes have different port configurations. the 5.0 is single file ports while the GT40/cobra intakes use an offset port configuration.
