Description
What is a phenolic spacer and what does it do?
A phenolic spacer insulates the intake manifold from the cylinder head, preventing heat transfer and keeping intake air cooler for optimal engine performance.
How much horsepower can I expect to gain from installing a phenolic spacer?
By significantly reducing heat soak and minimizing air intake temperatures, a phenolic spacer maximizes horsepower gains through a denser, more potent combustion charge.
Skunk2 Racing's Thermal IM Gasket is engineered for optimal engine performance, achieving a usage score of 8 for Engine Performance by minimizing heat soak. Constructed from advanced high-temperature thermal polymer, this bolt-on phenolic spacer directly combats heat transfer for substantial horsepower gains.
