Plenum Spacers?
Ok, I realize that for experienced tuners this is probably going to sound like a drooling retard question, but I've searched and read some articles about plenum spacers, and I still don't get it. Could someone please explain to me?

the stock plenum basically slopes and resticts air to the front two cylinders...a spacer gives more room under the upper plenum to aloow more air to flow to those cylinders...
