Message: Your probably not going to get a response to this because everyone is hellbent against these. Something to do with the beer keg design of the intake. I thought about it until I read around and as far as I have read they've just been known as paper weights. Save your money and get something else. Unless it's free then try it and see what happens. Cant hurt right?

Message: i have the helix power tower and was not worth the $90. i would take that money and make a home made cold-air-intake very please with the add preformance of mine. the intake costed me $45. the throttle body spacer does alittle but its is limited because the fuel jets are at the end of the manifold.

Message: Hey there shlaven. You are lucky you received some PLEASANT replies.
There are some who would have flamed you for not searching, etc. :)
Anyway. I agree. SAVE the dough and make a intake tube or something. The 2HP from that will be much more than the TB spacer LOL!

Message: galyion, i really wouldn't waste the money on one. maybe though if the engine would benefit from a little more plenum volume it may help in the upper rpms, but i doubt it. i know it doesn't benefit the design if the kegger manifold but have read that it may help some on the newer OHV 4.7's & 3.7's. to me it's not worth the money.

Message: While the plates alone are a waste of time, money and horsepower, there are great for nitrous nozzles or just a paper weight.
