Injector spacer (not TB spacer)...

Does this raise everything, including the air filter assembly, or does it jsut raise the pod? I would like to get some more space in there, but with the open element I have, it touches the hood blanket as it is.

Thanks!

How does raising the pod help anything?

By raising the injectors further from the bores, it allows more airflow. Plus, it is said that a better cone can be formed.

the same can be achieved using washers instead of a spacer. Just put the washers between the tb and the pod and put the bolts through the washers. Not only that but you can alter the hight as much as the fuel fittings will allow. I did it and it cost me nothing.
