phenolic spacer to keep IAT down because it doesn't conduct heat. It might be a more suitable idea than using aluminum as it may be cheaper and we can keep costs down for this econobox. But what about if theres constant abuse of spraying, does this material take well to something like that?

it should hold up BETTER than aluminum, as aluminum tends to rot when exposed to nitrous oxide.
