I might try to get a mrev2 to add to my 5/16th spacer now that i know it doesnt serve the same purpose. Toy around with it and my AFC II a little bit see what we can get out of it.

see this is why im confused...

According to this thread, if you have the non rev up motor and you add the 5/16th spacer you automatically have the same thing as the mrev minus the better machining for air flow...so all in all the 5/16 spacer is the same thing as the mrev except for the lower collecter that is machined for better air flow...
-sean??? im confused now haha

To me thats what it sounds like tony was trying to say in my last post...

So the example that i was trying to give is that if you were to weld or mold a 5/16th spacer to a OEM lower plenum then essentially you would have what is called the mrev...right?

So what i was asking is since i already have the non-revup motor and a 5/16 spacer would it be any use to replace the oem lower plenum with the mrev2 since all i would be doing another 5/16 spacer basically? Hypothetically speaking wouldn't it do the same thing as just adding -2- 5/16 spacers to my OEM plenum? (minus the machining of course_

Benefical? From what I read yes.
No.
No. Spacers does not = MREV2 IMHO anyway.

Isnt that what he is implying here though...? That if you have an OEM plenum with a 5/16 spacer it is already a mrev though...

What is the date of Tony's post you are quoting?... I suspect it was before he even started doing the MREV2
Original MREV was the nonrevup lower collector for the revup motors... I have stated this MANY times today.

Honestly, you have such a continuous flow of questions and seem to be a little reluctant to latch on to an explanation; I highly suggest you give Tony a call directly. He is a great guy, obviously knows more about it than anyone – and has some of the best customer service I have experienced in any industry ever. He will help you understand and give you answers you can count on.
