This is a MUST when upgrading to an aluminum charge cooler. With the upgraded cooler you get the benefit of a better core, and more cooling capacity, but it also comes with the downside of DIRECT aluminum-to-aluminum heat transfer from the head to the manifold which can cause heat soak and less-than-ideal IATs even with an upgraded charge cooler. We manufacture these from G11 Expoxy sheet which has great heat and hardness characteristics, and we feel is the ideal material for this application. The thickness is 8mm. The spacer is machined to accept factory O-rings for a perfect seal, and they are included\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat’s included:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne g11 Phenolic spacer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne Set of O-rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8mm Thick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWill reduce heat transfer from the head to the charge cooler, which will reduce IAT’s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect for drag racers who see heat soak while in the staging lanes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat for all types of racing where heat soak is an issue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimilar in composition and properties to G-10 phenolic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh mechanical strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow water absorption\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow dissipation factor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetains 50% or more of its structural strength when exposed to temperatures over 300°F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMil-I-24768\/3, Type GEB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eG11 Specs:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eG-11 has similar mechanical properties and composition to G-10 phenolic, including high mechanical strength, low water absorption, and a low dissipation factor.
