  • got my Big Dee TB Spacer on...

    it took about 15 minutes altogether. simple mod. had to back out the bottom bolts a couple threads just to be safe and that requires an E6 Torx socket. since it's raining it's hard to get a full impression of what it will do. even with traction it's not gonna give 20hp anyway, but maybe 3-5. one thing though, it does seem to rev a bit quicker i ended up hitting the rev limiter the first time i shifted to second.

    th TB was already warm from me driving it about 2 hours previous. after the drive the TB was still slightly warm to the touch but the upper intake was hot as hell so i think if the TB had been cold before it would probably still be cool to the touch. for the price i think it's a worthwhile mod. add a few of the small mods like this together and i think you can get a good gain. anyway talk to DEE for anymore info about it.
    i was swimming in the carribean. animals were hiding behind the rocks except for the little fish, but they told me the squid\'s trying to talk to me. oink, oink. where is my mind?

      i have a 99 but i can's see why it wouldn't work for 95-97. it only moves your TB forward 3/8". so move it forward 3/8" and see how it is.

        Just curious, when did you get yours in the mail? I'm out in Lubbock so it might take a little longer than from Sherman to Richardson but not much. Just curious because I haven't gotten mine yet. Did you have to sign for it? How are they being shipped? I won't get home from work till after 3 so hopefully it will be left on the front porch.

          Is there a site for these spacers? I would like to look into one for my LT1 TB.

            actually i was the other prototype and so DEE came down to Plano(need to change my profile) and we put it on. now that he has got them fitted i'm sure he'll start making all of them to send out.

              They are in the works right now. I should have most of the GP done by the end of the week. All the patterns have been cutout and about 30% complete.

              As far as ordering, you can paypal me at rsolomon2@hotmail.com include the year, make, model. I have alot of material left due to some people not making payment and I had to order a large sheet to be sure I had enough. I will accept requests until I run out. But it is doubtful I will order any more material and continue making them. They are very time consuming, and my wife might kill me. ;) I just don't have alot of free time to run a spacer business.

              $50 for 2 new GM gaskets, spacer, instructions, and maybe bolts.(3.4L, and 99+ work just fine without new bolts, '98 should work except 1 bolt)

              The LT1 will be a little more since it is larger. If you are interested please email me.

              No website, I haven't had time. Since this is for a limited run, I didn't bother. I thought about it though. ;)

                viper98885-
                DEE took a request, and everyone who wanted them sent checks or pay pal orders. You might be able to get in on it since he's just now starting to make them. But, if the lt1 tb is any different than he might have to wait till he get enough lt1ers to pay for the work. I cant remember, but I'm pretty sure it was only like $25. So I mean, even if it doesnt add hp but help keep things cool than its still worth it. I cant wait till mine comes!! [img]smile.gif[/img]

                          Not sure, probably somewhat similar to the coolant bypass mod. Keeps the TB alot cooler when used with the coolant bypass mod. 3-5HP maybe???

                          For the 3.8Ls, the coolant is bypassed by the spacer itself.

                            Were you on the original list? I don't remember. You can paypal me rsolomon2@hotmail.com or email me for info if you are sending payment by pony express.
                            Anyone else interested email me instead of posting here. I check my mail far more often than this section. ;)
