Most of the heat soak is being generated inside the IC that is trapped between the SC and engine block... So while you are installing the spacers, insulate the bottom and sides of the IC with ThermoTec insulation.
The power of marketing..."these intake manifold spacers help reduce intake temperatures by
as much as 100 deg. F"
