    TB question

    I have an 06 4.8 exsb and i was wondering if a DBW 90mm TB for an TBSS or LS2 would fit on my 4.8 intake.

    depends on what you're putting it into you may have to get a DrX conversion box to run the electronics on the TB. Some have said they rewired a factory connector to make it work without the DrX box.

    i dont think the 4 bolt TB will work on your 3 bolt intake. if so then i learned something new. plus the TBSS tb is 87mm an the NNBS tb is 87mm the only 90mm is the car (vette, camaro, etc)

    I misread it , I guess.

    Thought it said TBSS intake on a 4.8 engine. The TBSS TB will work on a 2007+ NNBS 4.8L intake.

    There is a company that makes a 4 to 3 bolt TB adapter just don't know what company it is though.

    Your TB is 78mm 3bolt, and the TBSS is a 87mm 4bolt. I have an adapter for sale with hardware and gasket, pm me if you are interested or check the for sale section.

    IMHO whats the point to put a 87mm TB on a 78mm intake? theres no point but to each is own. good luck. id just save up an buy a TBSS intake/NNBS intake. or do something really cool like a Pro-Flo but once again youd need more engine than a 4.8 to justify the price of the intake/fuel rails/injectors
