I'm talking using the 90mm tb in place of the LS1/6 tb. I was wondering if someone had a plug n play wiring adapter mainly, and maybe a tb spacer/adapter due to the different bolt pattern.

TPiS has a couple different setups that they sell using their own modifed intakes and TB's. They are the only one's that I know of with a direct "plug-n-play" setup to a LS6 intake.

If you are using a aftermarket 90mm TB (Nick Williams, FAST, etc..) you should be able to use the standard connections for a car setup. They plug directly into the car harness, but of course you will need to make some sort of adapter.

I'm guessing by your signature that you are trying to adapted one for you Radix kit. Haven't seen anything that would be a direct fit.
