I want at least 1 thread to show on the top side of the nut.

Wow, thanks! But I don't think spacers will be enough here. I think I'm going to have a different mount built:
Getting a good wrinkle black seems very much dependent on the prep work and process. A friend did his engine bay in the same wrinkle black powder and it turned out with a lot different texture. I used a local powder coater, Glendale Powder Coating and they did some sort of industrial chemical wash that just turned out awesome.

Yes, definitely. I don't want any gaps. Here's a couple shots of the airbox in CAD to explain a bit more re: my previous post. I'd like to make a small duct to direct a bit of air from the V right to the turbo CHRA, but I'm not sure it would do enough to make wortwhile yet.
