Taylor Vmax Intake Manifold Spacer

[kylenautique]

I'm looking for the Taylor Vmax manifold spacer for my L31 Vortec 5.7. Let me know if anyone's got one and wants to part with it.

Curious what this would even do. Fuel injectors still plug in the same place.

Supposed to help with airflow. The injector spider is a restriction and this gives the air more room to maneuver around it.

Yeah, supposed to give 21hp more. @xXxPARAGONxXx had one and his impression was that it’s a waste of time.

I've been tempted to fab one on the mill, since there NLA.

Why is there so much interest in these? There has to be a long list of other mods that are better to do before this.

it claimed 31% more plenum volume the power and torque claims are mostly wrong there use to be a dyno graph for it some where but cant find imho more plenum volume is a good thing along with lifting the upper intake an inch it also lifts the spider an inch as well as an inch spacer for the water neck for the t-stat imho the only down side to it was the price and having to mess with the fuel lines and one of the spark plug wires here is a video

Just say no it’s a waste of time. BTW so is the TBI spacer
