Because I have some issues mounting the TB on my modified SC I'm having a custom made TB spacer. Those of you who have read around the net know the benefits. If you're interested in where I'm having mine made just let know. It's fairly inexpensive.

No pics yet as mine is being made. It will look just like the TB gasket as far as shape is concerned. You can get it in a gunmetal black or brushed alum. Cost is about the same as on the link provided but keep in mind these are special order not off the shelf.

UPDATE - I've found a Toyota throttle body spacer that bolts right up to the V6 1MZ 2000 Solara.

It's for a 1995 - 2004 Toyota Tacoma 3.4L V6.

Made by Helix Power Towers Plus. Part Number 34055.

Good luck!
