Throttle body spacers
Did a search but didn't find what I was looking for. Any LIGHTNING owners have any opinions on throttle body spacers? Found some info on them with the search but not for lightnings.

The only 2 things a spacer is good for is improved torque and less heat transfer. Torque is only improved on a naturally asp engine and is marginal at best (you want torque, then hit the supercharger!) And heat really isn't an issue at the T.B. of our trucks. So I can't really see the advantage of one.
