So the powerhobby motor sunk and fan comes with only 4 🤔🤦‍♂️. And there's 8 screws. Ridiculous IMO. But as usual there's debate on use them or not. So just seeing what all your OPINIONS are to this ? Better/more air flow with or with out??? THANKS AGAIN

If you have enough clearance use the spacers. They are a pain to line up, but the gap helps the fans work better.
Going to cut the spacer in half. Well going to try with the dremel. It only came with 4 spacers not 8. 🤔 oh well that's what dremels are for. LO🤣🤣
 
are you talking about .something like a washer?. if yes you can make your own out a piece of aluminum foil. take a piece . fold it in half till you get close to the same thickness as stock. a carpet tack or nail can be used to make a hole 4 screw.. as the line up use a small piece of kids clay to stick it in place(many plane wrenches will tell you this can save your bacon),,,
This little PITA . Powerhobby only has 4 spacers. But need 8 for both fans. So 👎👎 for this one LOL

my local hardware store has bins of nut bolts screw and nylon tubes. id call them a spacer in various sizes . I have my own parts bin filled with all types of parts and pieces to make what I need. id suggest getting a few and just cut to size.
