for a spacer, you do not need to take the throttle body off. just unbolt the upper plenum, lift it up and slide the spacer in then bolt it back down.

just bring it with you on wednesday night, ill try to get you there depending on my class times.

just unplug the lines and put them together with the connector. i would also cap the ends of the ones that are on the plenum.

Just make sure you get all the gaskets straight and flat so you don't create a leak.

It's easy to mess them up sliding a spacer between the upper and lower plenum.
