Actually, I'm thinking of removing the spacer. Initially, I had to space them up to get everything to fit right. I get a slight bit of rubbing on the right front corner of the air cleaner. The stacks have plenty of room.
But, I'v changed things around since then. If I want to, I can remove these 1" spacers. I could stand a lose a little bit of torque, I'v got plenty to spare. Especially if I'll gain some top end.
