I have a 2001 Silverado 5.3. I was thinking about buying a throttle body spacer. Has anyone tried one on a 5.3? What kind of results did you get?

yeah I have seen a 1-2 mpg gain. I have 99 one ton with the vortec 7.4L Some claim to see no diff if you look at this forum and others. The theory behind the spacers claim more torque which seems to be true wiht my truck.
