I'm currently running a Nitrous Outlet 78mm plate on by TA. I'm going to swap my LS6 intake to the FAST 102 w/matching throttle body. I'm thinking about having the 78mm plate machined out to fit the 102mm opening of the FAST intake and throttle body. Has anyone ever done this? Or am I asking for trouble? I know this would be a very delicate process, but in the hands of a competent machinist, I think it's more than achievable.

Thoughts?

 

Check your bolt patterns...

Do you think the 102 will have a larger/wider bolt pattern than the factory configuration?

 

Its 4 bolts vs. 3 on the factory stuff.

Ok, I see. That didn't cross my mind when I was thinking about it. Guess a new plate is in my future. Are there even plates available for the 102 yet?

 

Yeah I seen some plates with N20 outlet and Harris I believe

 

Ok. I found one on Nitrous Outlet's website.

 

Yep.. That 78 is completely different than a 102mm plate.. Good thing is you can easily sell that 78 and just get a 102 plate conversion.

Yep. I love your plates and have nothing but great luck with them. I will be buying the 102 plate soon.
