96-00 GM P/U 5.7L TB Spacer

The 96-00 GM P/U 5.7L TB Spacer from AIRAID INTAKE SYSTEMS is a precision throttle body spacer designed specifically for 1996–2000 General Motors pickup trucks equipped with 5.7L V8 engines. This component addresses limitations in OEM intake manifold design by optimizing air flow dynamics between the throttle body and intake manifold. Mechanics and performance enthusiasts recognize throttle body spacers as a cost-effective modification for enhancing throttle response and overall engine efficiency.

This spacer utilizes AIRAID's proven design philosophy, which focuses on reducing turbulence and increasing effective plenum volume. By inserting precision-machined material between the throttle body and manifold, it allows for better fuel vaporization and more complete combustion. The lightweight construction ensures minimal stress on OEM throttle body mounts while maintaining stock bolt patterns and port alignment for a direct bolt-on upgrade.

This modification is ideal for owners of 1996–2000 Chevy and GMC pickups with 5.7L V8 drivetrains who seek improved throttle feel and drivability without sacrificing reliability. Installation is straightforward and takes approximately 30–45 minutes with basic tools, making it accessible for both novice and experienced mechanics alike.
