No, those .187 thick spacers are not required. They were first installed to cover a Engr. Dept, error and when the original stock was used they were discontinued.

Solve your problem and buy a Wells Maf SU-145 for about $100. Do a search on this site about this Maf, it uses a film and not a hot wire for air flow.
