As far as I know, from the posts, spacers dont do anything for you and they are a waste of money. I would trust most of the guys here, if they say that. Then again most of them have 4.7 and Hemis so I dont know if 3.7 makes any difference. I dont think so.

Man, I love them, but I hate them at the same time. Altought I only have 300 miles on it, I am still gonna give it some time. I think if I shift below 3000 rpms all the time, I can get away with it. The problem is that if I need pick up speed I am screwed. I was next to a Ram 2500 this morning, we were at the light and since people drive like there are no rules here in Miami, I had to speed up and there it came out, not too ricer more like a race car, like a 350Z (if you know what I mean). I wonder what the guy thought. We both have tinted so I could not see his face. Maybe it was like this or like this [&:].
I am waiting for someone with a 3.7 to put the 50 in and get their results. I tell you that with stock at high rpms was pretty aggressive too. Not to loud, but nice. So I wonder if it has to do with space. The 40 series is half the size of stock. The stock is almost the same size of the 50. We'll see.
