Default grid heater spacer

Who makes the little things that replace your grid heaters? I Know a few gus that have run them but dont know much about them except they are little aluminum blocks. Do they help to get air through or are they a waste of money?

most guys just gut the housing but i'd just leave your grid heaters in. they have very, very little restriction in them and the chances of you flowing enough air on a street driven truck to acutally benefit from removing them are very slim. and cold starting ability will be affected if you do this.

Thanks jonny I was wanting it for summer time and the track and dyno days and stuff. I dont really want to gut mine. DM that is exactly what I was talking about. I just didnt know if i would get enough more cool air from one of these to make it worth it just for playin around.
