Default question about ls2 throttle body on a fast 90 or 92 intake

Im looking to install a fast 90 or 92 intake on my vette with the ported ls2 throttle body I already have. Will any of the fast intakes that are 90 or 92 mm work with the ls2 tb or are they made specificly to fit one or the other? Is there a certain part number I need to look for?

Same mounting flange on both.....you can bolt an LS2 up to a 90 or a 92.....its just as effective. Even the new 102 will accept that TB but I feel a 102 TB is worth a couple of ponies (but much harder to tune!)

I would really prefer to find a 90 or 92mm considering I plan to stay just heads and cam for a while and I would rather run my stock fuel rails also.

I really don't understand why they quit making the 92mm. Now im stuck looking for a used 90 or 92 mm. Its just not worth it to go to the 102. I wouldn't mind it so much if I could use my fuel rails and it wasn't a pain in the *** to tune.

I have a brand new 90 I was saving for a rainy day....its never been out of the box.

If your interested PM me and we can go from there. I would only sell it if you opted to have me port it which is a no brainer anyway because it doubles the gains from the swap.

No difference in power between the 90 and 92....marginal gains stepping into the 102 but more of a PITA swap as you know. Personally I think Comp dropped the ball there by not keeping a direct bolt on piece available to the masses (the 92mm version), and they could have still offered the 102 for those wanting to take the plunge and deal with the additional install hassles and expense for the few extra ponies.
