If i put a 12mm spacer under my plenum and a 12mm spacer under my inlet manifold, will it affect or improve my ride? Also do i need a gasket top and bottom of both spacers? What size o-ring is on my IAC as mine is perished and disappeared? What are the best engine mounts to get and where would you recommend getting them from? (Im from adelaide) If i install the mace airbox with inbuilt pod filter, is it recommended to get, a MAFless tune, a recon MAF or an 85mm MAF? Once plenum is off, is it safe to remove the plenum lid to clean inside? And what is safe to clean it with? E.g degreaser or TB cleaner. Same question for inlet manifold, whats it safe to clean with? Is it best to clean the inside of my rocker covers and do custom paint on exterior, or buy alloy rocker covers? Is there any "high quality" or "performance" water pumps, or is a standard one suffice? Im sure ill think of more but help on these questions would be great.
Better torque and fuel eco. Youll use gasket goo and new rubber gaskets for the lid and plenum. Take the IAC into a shop and find one that fits. Standard engine mounts are fine. Ebay those. Leaving the maf in is fine. Only go a bigger maf if your going a bigger TB. Mafless for show or F/I set ups. You can take the plenum off, clean it all with TB/carby cleaner. Also do your PCV valve. If you take your inlet manifold off youll need new oil and coolent as well as new gaskets. Wouldnt bother cleaning the under side of the rocker covers. Paint or alloy, its up to you how you spend your money. Standard water pump is fine.

So in theory, they are the exact same module, just being listed as a v8 part even though they fit the v6? Stupid manufacturers lol
