hehehe!
Spacers stopped serving a purpose when Fuel Injection became the norm. In carburated (sp) cars phenolic spacers were useful in isolating the heat from being transmitted from the intake manifold to the carb. This helped reduce things like vapor lock and also helped to further mist the gas before it entered the combustion chamber (slightly longer travel distance and turbulence.
TB spacers, useless.

Actually, I think TB spacers make GREAT xmas tree ornaments. Your friends and family can point at them and laugh at you and you'll drink more eggnog out of embarassment and you'll have a great holiday cheer.
