Nozzle in MAF housing?

I was thinking of tapping the MAF end that's closest to the TB to mount my wet nozzle. There's plenty of metal there to drill and tap. Would this be a bad spot for the nozzle?

It worked Great for me on my car a few years ago. It also made the nozzle not move around as much and made it easier to do jet changes as well

It should be fine. Just make sure there is enough room to attach the two braided lines to the nozzle.

Cool. Thanks, guys.

BTW, Matt, I'm going to try out your Black Mamba. We'll see how it works.

This is what I did a few years ago when I first installed my NX kit. There is enough there to tap and screw the nozzle in. I have now went with the maf kit hope the picture helps.

02 Pewter LS1, can you tell me how long your hose is from the fuel rail to the fuel solenoid? Also, how long are your hoses from the solenoids to the nozzle? I may end up having to set my system up that way and I need to know what hoses I need to get.
