Jetwreck Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) Guy's.....just a heads up for those that wanted a Phenolic runner spacer for the M35. I have made up enough runners for 9 kits. Kit includes: * Phenolic runner spacer * Mounting bracket for the fuel rail and gearbox dipstick * All extended plenum bolts and nut *****you will need to order a runner gasket....I can arrange this as well at your cost***** PM me for further details. P.S. I can do the install if wanted in NSW or organise in VIC....again PM me for details.

andy65b Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Can u run the standard engine cover still? mmmm, not really. You may be able to just squeeze it in but most of us who have done any work have removed them to keep the plenum cooler.

iamhe77 Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 (edited) Can u run the standard engine cover still? Yes - but it is tight and I believe you will have to extend the studs that hold it on at the front of the engine if you want to screw it down (the rear supports screw in to the plenum, so no issue there. The mate I quoted earlier has his engine cover on. He has an ARX, not that it should make a difference.

02stagea Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Picked up my spacer last night. Very neat bit of kit. Big thanks to Andy and Craig for organising it at such short notice. I really appreciate it guys. Oh and Craig.... You could of let your missus go shopping mate! That phone call exchange between you and Andy had me in stitches!!! Thanks again. Andrew.

Son Gokou Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Does this kit can be fitted to the V35? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/299513-m35-vq25det-runner-spacer/page/3/#findComment-5375264 Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy65b Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Does this kit can be fitted to the V35? The kit we made is specific to the VQ25DET motor as the VQ35DE is slightly different. Send IAMHE77 a PM as he was working on a phenolic spacer for the VQ35DE.

zei20l Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 arent the runners in the same spot for all VQ engines? its the plenum on top thats different i think Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/299513-m35-vq25det-runner-spacer/page/3/#findComment-5375569 Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy65b Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 arent the runners in the same spot for all VQ engines? its the plenum on top thats different i think I know they are very similar but Cam tells me they are slightly different. not so much that they are in a different spot, more that the inlet size is slightly different I think.

iamhe77 Posted August 1, 2010 Author Share Posted August 1, 2010 Does this kit can be fitted to the V35? No. But I can do one that can. We made up a kit for my mate's V35 (GT-8), but you won't be able to close the bonnet if you have a 5/8" plenum spacer. 5/16" you may get away with but I can't be 100% sure. ahh right!larger or smaller Cam? if they are larger, potential upgrade for VQ25DET owners?? VQ35de runner spacer is very different to the VQ25det. Larger overall with significantly larger inlets. VQ35de spacer is NOT an upgrade for VQ25det.
