Throttle Body Spacer

Has anyone used a TBS on their truck? I was looking to put it on a 98 Vortec 350. Are they even worth the 100 bucks?

Try looking for one made by Trans-Dapt Performance Products. They are all basicly the same thing, a big fat metal spacer plate so the brand name doesnt really matter, unless you need to brag about it. At Summit Racing, the one for your truck is part number: TRD-2565, It costs $46.39, and it is CARB exempt. For $50, I saw some better throttle response and a little more MPG, it did create a 'squeaking' noise at partial throttle openings though, I can live with that no problem. If you have an intake though, you will probably need to cut/trim the radaitor shroud a little bit because the intake tube will probably hit it and not fit perfectly.

I am currently looking on there site but it's slow coming up. Are the dyno results there? I've heard they don't do much, so I'd like to see for myself.

Remember everytime someone buys a TBS, a baby angel losses its wings.
