On mine, when I deleted the egr spacer, and replaced it with a 3/8" thick Accufab spacer with the mounting tabs for the throttle/cruise cables, I had another issue to deal with. Moving the throttle body that much closer to the intake (about 1.5") resulted in the throttle body linkage interfering with the valve cover. I ended up having to place a spacer between the lower and upper intakes -- to move the upper/throttle body up to clear the valve cover. Explorer intake/FRPP 65mm throttle body on mine.
