Default FAST 90MM intake and Nick Williams TB ?
Anybody who's running this setup...please help!! I got my Nick Williams TB today and went to install it on the intake but the top bolt(supplied with the intake) is too short to go through th TB in order to secure it to the intake. AM I MISSING SOMETHING?? Please help if you can. Thanks in advance!!

I see that I should start sending a bolt. I will get a length tomorrow and post it so that you guys can get the correct bolt. It will however seal just fine without the top bolt. The ls2 intake and TB is the same bolt pattern only missing the top hole. I haven't had any problems with them not sealing.

To be honest, I had to get a bolt from walmart to properly mount it. There was definitely a gap between the intake and the tb when I tried to secure the tb using only 4 bolts. Without a doubt there would have been leakage.

The bolt size is M6x60 or 1/4 x 2 3/8. Bolt should cost less than a stamp. If anyone has a problem finding one let me know.
