Here's the problem. I have a BBK SSI intake and a 75 MM Accufab throttle body. The thottle body spacer wont fit the intake. The intake has a raised piece right next to where the thottle body goes. My IAC wont fit on the throttle body because it hits the intake. I thought about using a different spacer but all I see is the swirl spacers and I dont know what kind of opening they have. Any other idea's?

I don't seem to understand your problem, pictures would help. But the SSI intake dosn't need a spacer for the throttlebody.

Here is a link to another thread that contains picture of a ssi intake with the throttlebody on.

Thats funny you used that picture. I just bought that intake. The problem is without the spacer, the IAC hits the intake. Maybe another IAC that has a different angle or a shorter one might help. But the spacer was the first thing I thought of.
