Default Hart plenum and 10mm spacer?

I have a 10mm inlet spacer i bought when collecting parts for my engine build, but then i chose a Hart plenum over the 4x4 item as i got it at a good price and its a better plenum but i still have the 10mm spacer,

Question is would you use it still or not? i am looking for 500 - 600bhp so don't know if its needed with the Hart item?

Any info appreciated

Thanks
Marc

Not required at that level as far as im aware, so you'll just be losing throttle response for a gain in flow that you dont need IMHO

Thats the problem, getting the power is easy, getting the transmission to hold together isnt.

Especially if 4wd.
