Please help me out. I was wondering if replacing the stock PCV valve is a good idea, and if a throttle body spacer is really worth it. I know that the (throttle body spacer) comes with gaskets and longer bolts, and it would not take very long to install. Plus it's around $65-$90 online. (I haven't checked anywhere else) Is it worth it?

Nothing wrong with replacing your PCV valve if you want to. As for the throttle body spacer, they're pointless. I read some where on here a very good explenation of why they're pointless but I forgot what thread it was on. Other than that I've seen nothing but negative talk about them. Save that $90 and buy something else!

The spacers can be effective in carbureted and early throttle body applications where the injectors were in the throttle body. They are useless in later throttle body applications where the throttle bodies handle air only (such as in the Magnum series introduced in 1992).
