1/2 MD Spacer Oil Spill?...

I installed a motordyne spacer a couple of months ago and i was showing a friend it then i noticed that i can see oil coming out of the plenium, like between the spacer and lower plenium. I dont know if thats normal, it wasnt alot of oil, just like the outline. Is this normal? Should i retourque the screws?....

It's normal to have some oil inside the plenum. I would re-torque all the bolts down.

Spacer Spill..........

There's a rubber ring that goes around the oil filler, make sure it's not stuck
between the top plem and the spacer. Oil doesn't belong anywhere on or
around the plem.....not normal.

If there is any discoloration between the spacer and the plenum, re-torque because it is evidence of a leak. +1 - NOT normal.
