its not worth the hassle.
Just remember your intake manifold is sitting right on top of the cylinder heads. Even if you use those "Isothermo whatever gasket", you still can block out the radiant heat coming off from the bottom. So unless you can completely isolate the heat transfer to your intake manifold plenum, otherwise the "gain" from reduction of heat in your throttle body is insignificant.
