Zilp, zitch, notta, they don't work, and they can cause your cai not to fit right.

Sure...just don't install until you get the big power...
But I would use the $$$ for something useful, like an under drive pulley. But that's just me....

In that case, instead of the spacer, look into lowering springs! Better handling! Check out AutoBadges.com for the Eibach springs!
