yup, but probably <.100" so ....
hopefully the tradeoff (cooler manifold temps for infinitessimally misaligned injectors) is worth it.
my first thought was, for $40, can't hurt to try! =)

the link has a more thorough explanation but-->
basically it is a thermal insulator, isolating the intake manifold from the head. a cooler intake manifold means the charge air won't heat up as much as it passes thru the plenum then the runners.
