For an STB? Ohh to clear for a GS3. Nope. I'd call a dealer, or Steve G. I think Manaray did a post a little while back about using spacers on a STB for a SC - not sure if he said where to get them. I think they were OEM though.

If you are coming to the meet , you could just pick it up there

Wow ... I'd already be running low just going to the meet and staying at a hotel I don't know we'll see -- this is a great price though.

I'm pretty sure that's why he was asking about 'spacers'

How about some washers from the auto parts store or Home Depot/ Lowe's. Just stack them under the STB.

The guy I bought it from tried all sorts of spacers. If I recall correctly, by the time it cleared the intake, it wouldnt let the hood close.
