Throttle Body Spacer = Nicely machined block of aluminium thats good for a paperweight and not much else

:0)

So no, Throttle Body spacers are useless on dodge engines, except for the 4.7, in which it -supposedly- makes minor gains.

Throttle Body's are easy to install, I've had mine off before. There are four bolts holding it to the truck, plus the throttle cable (clips on), two vacuum lines (pull off) and two electrical connections.
