Default Fast 90 Installation Help!!

I have a Fast 90 intake to put on my car. I recently bought a GM LS2 90mm TB and was told it would work on the Fast intake as long as I had the adapter for the wiring harness.

Well I pulled everything out today, and it (TB) doesn't bolt up to the Fast.

Is there some type of adapter/spacer for the LS2 TB to work with this intake? I also noticed that the TB doesn't have the TPS like my stock one does. Is this taken care of in the bigger connection on the side of the LS2 one?

I currently have the heads off of my car, and I will need this to put everything back together.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Do you have the TB sitting correctly? The TB motor should be on the passenger side. It bolts right up as I have one on mine

edit: if you got the caspers harness, then everything is pretty straight forward.

I will double check. At first, we had the motor facing the drivers side, and it would hit against some of the ("bosses"?) of the intake. We flipped it, but it didn't want to seem to fit flush against it. Maybe we were doing something wrong, and will try again.

Thanks.

It should sit like this...and yes, the harness takes care of the tps sensor you see on my stock ls6 tb

Thanks. I found out the problem.

I have a truck tb. The guy I bought it off of said it was an LS2 TB. I was even specific in that it would be going on my Corvette.

Oh well. I guess lesson learned. I guess I can sell it on some truck site for what it is and what it's worth.

Thanks for your help.

How do you know it is for a truck? Are there markings or numbers that indicate that? Also, the FS thread you bought from said it bolted up to the FAST - so I am surprised it will not do that for you. If you bought it in the C5 FS section - it should fit a corvette and NOT a truck - just my $0.02.
