I am thinking about trying a TB spacer. How hard is it to pull out the old studs and put in new ones?

TB not on studs. Four 8mm bolts attach TB to upper intake. 1/4" socket wrench is fine for loosening these. Please post a pic of your new throttle linkage setup when you get the spacer in and working.

Yor can use the stock bracket with only a few small modification pieces (keeping it intact!)
Notching the spacer and an extension piece & block.

Been there done that I have the T-Shirt. The spacer made no improvements. The manifold runners are already pretty long so I don't think it will help much unless you are going to put a septum in to seperate the air flow. I welded mine out of steel for concept. Also it is a pain in the arse to get the throttle cables to work correctly. I had to have someone pull the cable while the dyno was running.
If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?

Hey Can I see the shirt? How long was your spacer? And Yeah I am using the stock cable mounts, just extending the mounts.
