Yes - sort of. Dual plane manifolds were made to generate a signal that a carb needs, but TBI EFI systems don't need that. And EFI needs a map signal that represents the entire map that the engine sees, which is more consistent when using an open plenum. An open spacer or a cut down divider is a way to do that when you start with a dual plane manifold.


So, is there a standard rule for the amount of space the throttle body needs?


That's a tuffy. Any amount of opening helps, but there is no magic number because camshaft parameters affect it. There are thousands of Sniper users out there that never did anything about their dual plane manifold and they are running fine. Sorry to be vague but it's the truth. Use a single plane if possible is all I can suggest.
