Hi guys, I'm installing my Maggie 1900 and I'm missing the adaptor plate that must be used to mount the throttle body onto the intake. For those of you who installed theirs, does the kit come with this plate? I can't find any part # for it in the parts list.

 

best to just upgrade to a 90mm ls2/ls7 tb with x-link.

 

I've considered this but does that TB mount straight up to the 4 holes on the supercharger? Also, I need a cable driven one, what is x-link exactly?

 

send blownchevy a pm on this, it should of come with the plate if you ordered the right kit, good luck.

 

In your case with needing a cable driven throttle body, you don't need to worry about purchasing the X-Link as it is used with the ETC throttle bodies. By the same token, that also means that you won't be looking at any of the factory 90 or 87mm throttle bodies (I.E. LS2, LS3, LS7, stock '07 + truck, ect.). You will need one of the available aftermarket cable driven throttle bodies, if you decide to go that route in lieu of the adapter plate to run your current piece.

 

I'm leaning towards a Holley throttle body but it looks like it doesn't come with the coolant hose fittings at the bottom. I'm wondering if connecting the two hoses together would bypass this option. What do these hoses do on the stock TB? Do I need them in cold weather?

Edit: I did some research into the Holley throttle body. The coolant hoses can be connected in order to bypass the TB altogether. I ordered the Holley 90mm which comes with cable mounting brackets (solves that cable lack-of-mount problem on the 1900). I just need to go to GM and buy the big o-ring to go with it. I was originally going to get the 80mm but figured this one would be better for when I'm done my 5.7.

 

yes it will bypass the throttle body, and will give no harm.
