Default Will this help?

As some of you know I just put an Edelbrock Pro-Flow fuel injection unit on my Vette. The throttle body is like a carb, would a carb spacer help any way. I seen that if you add a spacer between the throttle body and the intake in a TPI unit it adds some power, would it work for me? Any one have any idea's or comments? :crazy:

I would say yes. By adding the spacer the are changing the plenum volume of the intake. Also legthening the runners by a little bit, this should help with air speed and promote better cylinder filling. But take note that adding a spacer might not give u any extra power. If anything it will just shift the power range slightly.
