    TBI Spacer comparison?

    I have been doing some research on T bodies and spacers. Has anyone tried the CFM-Tech spacer and how would it compare to say one from LMC, any difference.

    Throttle cable giving me hell

    so i finally busted my throttle cable and thought it was a simple fix...it was, until about 30 minutes down the road and it started getting harder and harder to engage the accelerator...it shuts off the tbi fine but it just is a pain in the ass to drive a stick when its not smooth...ive adjusted...
