I can take your helix spacer as partial trade towards a smooth 62mm spacer.  If it's of any help.

If I were still in Miami, I would have done it; but now the Jeep is in Panama, so shipping would kill me.  It's probably cheaper to have someone do it there; besides, I have a friend in Panama with a lathe (actually, a complete shop) who can probably do it for me for free...  I just got to find the time during one of my monthly trips to panama to do this!

I used Playdough to block the holes on my intake when I ground it.

Used a die grinder with a carbide burr and used the new
TB to scribe a line around the hole to see how much needed cut.

This is a way sweeter idea......

Dayum thats a great idea too! I used wadded duct tape balls which worked pretty good but this would work better.
