It should work dude, do you have all the pieces? the bolt and the tab/nut? IM assuming you know this but you have to take off the top plate on the tb for install. Hope this helps.

Yah theres a nut, its a wierd looking nut kinda looks like a nut/ tab if that makes sense lol. Im sure you could make it work with a washer or two and a regular nut.

If you don't have all the pieces, the HP gains from it won't net you the effort in trying to find them.
