Does anyone have one working on an ls1 yet??
I know there are issues with the fuel rail, map sensor and throttle body size.
I would like to use a ported throttle body on the LS2 intake and reuse my fuel rails if possible. I know there are larger potential gains with going to a 90MM throttle body. But I suspect that an LS2 intake with a ported throttle body will be better than my 99 intake(for sure) or an ls6 intake with a ported throttle body too. This would be a better starting point when I do headers and cam this winter. This would leave me open to more potential down the road as well.
Any thoughts??

The problem I see is that the LS2 fuel rail doesn't have a fuel pressure regulator made into it. Does anyone know how to solve this? I guess maybe you'd have one installed in the line somewhere?

Only the 1997-98 vettes got a 2 line return system with regulator.

I just installed 424. Waiting for AFR heads done by TEA. Chevy dealer wants a test car to do before and after, will give me the Ls2 manifold and 90MM TB.
When I get it I would like to know what I have to do. Any info would be apreciated.

I am using one with a FAST 90mm TB. I used stock fuel rails which have been modified to eliminate the crossover. I then welded some 3/8" pipe connectors onto the ends of each rail, and used braided hoses and AN connectors as supply lines.

I have an intake here and will have rails available very soon. The lower injector holes are slightly bigger and will require a different O-ring I am working on that as well. I will be selling the intake with our rails as kits.
