I have to wait to see the results too. If it gives good numbers I have to order a 90 plate kit instead of a 78 lol

does anyone make a 90mm dbc throttle body still? i found edelbrock but that seems to be the only one still in production. otherwise i think i'll have to hope the dorman can be opened up to accomodate a 92mm tb

Probably have to check eBay for that, seems to be the only option really.

There isn't much room until the gasket starts coming into play.

I have mine already, just haven't taken pictures yet. My phone camera won't focus and is worthless. The lower ports and runners all look exactly like the ls6 version, because that is what they are.

The snout opening matches up perfectly with the 92mm VMS Racing TB I bought to go with it. Not sure if the snout is large or the TB is small, but I'm happy with it.

I was all raring to buy one, even sold a couple intakes today to pay for it. Later this afternoon noon, I dropped my LS6 and broke the TB mounting flange. Now it looks like I'm going the TPIS 90mm conversion route.

What happens next? They are available, go order one. Dyno numbers? Don't expect any from me, I do my own tuning.

TBH, I've only been a forum member for 24 hours and I haven't owned my car for much longer than that. Noob here!

I'm not looking to buy something right away, but I will want an intake in the next six months or so. I just want to know as much as possible about the options available. Thanks!
