Aloha gang,
I have an ls6 intake with a 90mm snout on the way. Other than the adaptor wiring harness and adjusting my tune. What else will I need to do to make it fit
Thanks

I have a FAST 92 install procedure on my web site. Check it over to see if there is anything you may be missing I forgot below.

Your going to need a LS2 TB cable
http://www.casperselectronics.com/st...oducts_id=1087

Your going to need a TB bypass because the LS2 TB does not have the cooling water passages thru it like the LS1 TB has.



your going to need to vent the valve cover somehow because the LS2 TB does not have the port that the LS1 TB has.



I got 4x 45mm #6 Stainless bolts with washers/lock washers to mount the TB to the intake.

My silicone coupler is the same one that I had connected to my LS6 TB.
I just put the hole in it for the air line when i installed my LS2 TB.

Don't forget the Casper harness I mentioned above too....

Yep, thanks. I have it covered. Wonder if the harness works on 08 c6z tbody. The c6z says its an up grade for the ls2 tbody. I can grab a new tody off a 08 ls7 crate engine
