Spacer type and height are all dependent on what intake and engine size you are dealing with. A dual plane intake will not always respond the same to open vs four hole spacers or super sucker type intake, especially if the intake has a notch for the butterflies, or has been cut down. I have helped test dozens of combinations on the dyno, and found that engine size changes the characteristics of how they work. I have tried the super suckers up-side-down, in many configurations to try to find the absolute best combination, and again, the results changed with cubic inch and compression. It comes down to actually trying several on your vehicle and picking the one that you feel works best. Sometimes the best torque and horsepower will be found with three inches of spacers, two inches of spacer, or even no spacer. The EMC this year for Traditional Muscle Big Block and Small Block can not use a spacer. Joe-JDC
