To make a long story short, I need the clearance for my blower manifold. The manifold pushes down on the fuel regulator and causes the the rear three injectors on the pass side to leak.
A spacer would seem like the easiest thing to do but then the bracket for the blower snout would have to be modified to accomodate the thickness of the spacer.
i would think that even with 2 plenum gaskets, once torqued down, the added height would be very little (although my trick flow gaskets were actually fairly thick)
not sure what intake you're using but the smallest spacer i can seem to find is .375"

Yeah... the tolerance I'm looking for is very close. With no gasket, I can make the mating surfaces touch without creating the problem. Once I apply a fair amount of torque, it presses down enough to cause the issue. So I'm looking for (with luck) just enough space that everything is happy.
Good call... basically turn them into a single gasket. I'll give that a shot. The gaskets that I have are the Felpro with the metallic core (read: thicker than the plain ole paper version)... so this may be just the thing.
