Ok, so I was messing around on ebay and came across this
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=19016228...8&ssPag
It is a fuel injector spacer, it was linked off a TBI spacer. I'm
guessing the idea is similar to the tbi spacer. My thoughts, were this
is a bit overkill. TBI spacers seem to be in question and im not sure
what moving the injector up more is gonna do. Any Ideas?

Absolute zero. On relection, no: about a couple of of your hours and $15 are
lost. I tried one my '94 K1500 Suburban 5.7 TBI and there was zero change in
mileage and/or performance. I even bought a Hypertech chip for this unit and
I thought it had a slight perceptible performance increase off bottom end.
Zero mileage difference there either. I took it out later and couldn't tell
the difference after. So the original "difference" may have been just a
perception after spending $300 or so. The new Hypertech programmers actually
make a real difference. Use on on my '04 Avalanche Z71.

This spacer is only to increase air flow at WOT. Slightly, very slightly
Your engine will still use the same amount fuel.
