Well I have a set of the manifold brackets with NX noids. The driver side is OK although I had to mount it on the other side of the mount because of the FPSS. The Passenger side does not really fit though, the throttle cables are in the way, I just used the front intake bolt for the NX noid and purge but not sure how stable that is with driving, I may have to find another way to mount it....

I took some pics below. This install is for a friend on a 99 auto Z28. The quality of the brackets are very nice and if there was nothing in the way they would fit perfect on the manifold. Maybe for a vette?? Maybe I'm missing something....???

Excuse the mess I'm obviously in the middle of the install

On our kits the fpss is usually on the inlet of the fuel solenoid, if you relocated the fpss the fuel solenoid could be flipped the other side of the bracket and should be good.

On the N2O solenoids, if they are flipped to the other side, what are they hitting? The EGR tube?

When I say the solenoids should be flipped, I mean positioned like the pic below for reference.

It might hit the egr but I could see just ditching that. No the problem the bracket if I try to install it only will his those two throttle cables. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but it really doesn't seem like its going to work.....


I thought about the FPSS although that side is really fine but I might flip it and mount it to the noid.

I took apart again and tried to mount the bracket correctly...I just don't see how its going to happen. I'm going to give you a call if you don't mind?

Nice talking to you guys, sorry about that, I didn't see the second cable in the first batch of pictures. The Intake style brackets will not be "plug and play" on vehicles without the traction control option (the two throttle cable vehicles). The disclaimer on our website can be missed so I'm going to re-do it. It looks real close; figure a small notch in the bracket will fix it.

Thanks I just about have it wraped up. Honestly the notch you'd have to cut to get it to work is pretty large, so I mounted the bracket with one bolt to a coil pack bolt. I don't mind the one bolt on the valve cover just didn't want it on an intake bolt. It worked out pretty well, not as "pretty" as it would have been on a car with traction control but not bad. I'll get pics up soon!

Harris Speed has great customer service and these brackets are pretty nice, they actually fit better than the brackets that came in the NX kit. Which by the way has great customer service too!!!! We are very lucky to have these nitrous vendors I don't know of another group of products I've ever gotten this kind of service with...

So the brackets are nice even with a car without traction control as a "universal bracket" on the passenger side!

Thanks Matt!! Now I just need to figure out the controller (which was VERY easy to wire up BTW)

Some were started, but I'm not sure what the status of them are. Here is a link that shows one style:
