Red face Is Throttle Body Spacer Worth It?

Hey all you sixers...need your opinion. Continue to spice up my stang and want to know if it is worth it to install a throttle body spacer? If so which one would you recommend? Thanks!

NO !!! You will get more HP if you write "Boss 429" on the hood with a Marksalot.

HAHA that guys right. TB spacers are worthless. BUT for around the same price, you can actually get a upper/lower intake spacer which DOES work.

TB spacers do work in theroy

they are a 1/2 inch thick piece of steel, or aluminum, has teh proper sized hole for premium air flow, not to heavy, but heavey enough an old man can lift

looks at home in the shop or office,


stylish paperweight for the mustang lover in us all!
