    Today I installed a reptile ported tb on my gt and after takeing the old one off I found out the helix tb spacer's gasket[that i put on a year and half ago] was about to give again. I know most people think spacers are not worth anything but I did fell a diffence in respouse and a little power just few horses. Need something that I can trust not to leak I dont need to change the plugs out again because this isnt the first time this has happen.

    on the TB to spacer side of an L36.... you can't use the factory gasket because its a rubber insert for the upper plenum. Use RTV.
