Poll: Plenum Space = oil consumption?
After the recent plenum spacer install I helped with and someone noticed that one of the plastic spacers fell off, it made me wonder if this had happened to anyone else and what the effects where.
Now it is important to note that even though one of these guys fell of during installation and so far has not been recovered, that the G is still running fine, and nobody would be able to notice a thing.
So, here is the poll, for those of you that have installed a plenum spacer, how many of you started having (or noticed) oil consumption after? Or perhaps some other problem(s)?
Personally for me, I've never installed a spacer on my 05 6mt rev-up and I don't have any oil consumption issues yet (only consuming about 1 qt in 7500 miles with various grades of Amsoil).

and here is part 2:
if you take a look at part 2 and scroll over to 5:40, you will see that one of the plastic spacers fell off.
