You will need to use some common sense of course on your wood selection. Particle board would be the most ( leak proof) over OSB plywood. This is not meant to be left on for 50 miles or anything like that. Just long enough to determine how high a spacer is productive in your vehicle. If you had a sheet of 1/2" teflon, that works great as a final piece. Most folks don't have sheet teflon though. I glued the gaskets to the wood spacer with silicone adhesive held flat, to give a good seal then after it cured I had a spacer ready to install under the throttle body. This method did not leak and is cheap to try.
