I did an LS2 tb on my FAST 92. I did need an adapter like this though. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ce...FRBgMgodYBoALg

You will need an adapter like the one posted above. You can use an LS2 TB. It has to be the earlier one with silver blade. I ran one of these for a few years.

The LS3 looks similar with a gold color TB blade. It will plug in with the adapter also, but will not work right with the c5 electronics

I went with the Racetronix as I heard the Casper's has some issues.

You'll also need to relocate the vacuum line for the PCV system on the passenger side head since the LS2 TB doesn't have a port for it.

Just follow this write-up and you'll be golden: http://www.toquez06.com/fast.html

I have a TB from my ZR1 for sale it is a ported VMAX TB in great shape and polished

I'll take $350.

This was purchased from another member in January works perfect.

I used a TPIS 90MM to avoid any vacuum line issues and it works perfect.
