The install came out looking really good! To those who wondered how long the above mods took him, he told me it only took him 3.5hrs. Bob

nice job !!!!!

little to much work for me , dropping the cradle ida rather just made a custom cradle

the mounts i think the vettes are shorter than ours , so they might be a better option for a quicker fix than making some

the problem is ure pretty much forced to go solid motor mounts the intake is close and any engine movement would let it touch the hood

most aftermarket urethane mounts move about the same as a solid mount which is little to no movement

This intake would have to show big gains over the FAST to make me want to do all that fab work.

I admire your ingenuity. Thanks for posting that it can be done. These new intakes have a lot of promise in the HP department.

Congrats on a job well done.
