"5/16 basic" does that mean without the ISO upgrade?

Thanks for the post. It looks like the motordyneengineering 5/16 inch spacer is a clear winner. Am I reading the charts properly? Is that an oversimplification of the test results?

I believe "C" is Crawford and "K" is Kinetix.

+1

I'm assuming "Spacer (A)" = AAM, "Plenum (C)" = Crawford (cast?), & "Plenum (K)" = Kinetix (SSV)? Am I correct on this assumption? If so, how about the "APS Tallboy Plenum"?

I would be curious about the APS Tallboy Plenum also. What it looks like to me is the OEM upper plenum is a good design, it just benefits from being taller. Hence the spacers do so well in both horsepower and torque gain.

I think it was the V4, not the SSV.

They addressed that in the article on page 51:

yeah how is the skunk the motordyne spacer is out of stock in multiple places till jan- feb. I found the skunk2 one and was curious on how that one is. I have 500 bucks to spend so i wanted to get a plenum spacer and topspeed headers, since the motordyne isnt in stock for a while would it be worth it to get the skunk?
