We aqre the originators of the perimeter style plate with O-ring style gasket for the LS1. I can tell you that our desighn has been very impressive. Now we also carry the NOS plate conversion. It is alittle cheaper and we have it in stock as well.

So the ls2 plate uses the same bolt pattern as the fast 90?

Yep, the Nitrous Direct/Cold Fusion LS2 plate kit works on all 90mm intakes, as far as I know, even the ls7.

the cold fusion kit doesn't exactly seem to fit the 90mm fast perfectly. maybe its my kit but ther is alot of exposed surface for my taste... and no way to make the throttle work for a fast 90. you can somewhat see it in this pic.

Can you elaborate? why will the throttle not work? and what do you mean by to much exposed surface- in the tract? maybe give Albert a pm as he is the main tech guy for this site concerning Cold Fusion.

i mean you can make it work, but you got to cut and chop a whole lot of stuff. the plate moving the tb outword makes the throttle cables a bear to hook up. it matches up fine as far as the tract is concerned, but if you look at the top, where the top bolt goes threw there is a ton of not covered area. i haven't started the car yet, but im not 100% sure it will work

The exposed area should not hurt anything. Keep us updated on your install and your additional input. This is how we can make a better product, thanks.

it doesn't look all that great. but im not bashing it, its a nice peice just not really for that deal. how do you seal the tb to the plate? also without hacking and choping the throttle braket, any idea as to how to make that work? i know its designed for the LS2 and they don't need that solution, however what about people who thought it would work on a fast 90 also.

Well, I have to be honest, I have not installed a LS2 plate on a 90mm. So, I can only go on reports from the end users. Until now this is the first I've heard of issues, but not saying there aren't any. Maybe we need to include a throttle extension for the non fly by wire set-ups using the 90mm plate kit, however small this demand is. Sealing issue, not sure what your asking, kit has a gasket and throttle body normaly seals how?

The kit does not have a gasket. I put rtv on the plate to manifold side.

For these plate systems is it better to have a new fuel pump?

it's a good idea to have an adequate fuel supply with any N2O system, plate, fogger or whatever
