What are you talking about?? Please elaborate because your post doesn't make any sense. Are you trying to put an insert between your intake and T/b, sort of like a maf screen? Please explain what you need help with.

i'll try again. you know where the throttle cable bracket bolts to the intake just behind the TB???? the corvette LS6 intake does not have the brass inserts already pressed into it to bolt the throttle cable bracket to it because the corvette is fly-by-wire. so, before i go and buy a corvette LS6 intake, i need to know if we can get the brass inserts that go into the intake, so you can bolt the throttle cable bracket to it.

that any clearer??

You sure it doesn't have those? I have put 2 different LS6 intakes on 2 different and never ran into the inserts not being there. Never paid attention to where the intake came from though

for the record, this LS6 intake had no brass inserts for the throttle cable bracket. pulled them out of the LS1 intake and hammered them in. what's weird is this intake has a sticker with a part number on it that says prototype.
