General LSX Automobile Discussion - fast vs ls1 intake weight

So today i got bored and weighed my fast 90 intake and weighed an ls1 intake i had laying around. I thought that the fast intake was suppose to weigh less?? The fast weighed 10lbs and the ls1 intake weighed 10lbs. I know the fast is suppose to be stronger but i thought it was suppose to be lighter at the same time? Weird idk just figured id tellyou guys

Hmm.. that's odd. I thought the same thing. Don't suppose it matters any but I thought I remember reading that as one of the "advantages of a FAST intake"

Interesting experiment man

yea i remember reading that too. But thats what happens when you are bored as hell you experiment lol

Hell, even if its 20% lighter (which is a solid percentage), that would just have been 2 lbs. Not enough for me to care.

If they actually advertise a lighter manifold, that's another thing entirely. :secret2:

if anyone feels ripped off, i'll gladly trade my ls1 manifold for your fast :jest:

isnt a fast wider for more airflow?

The fast is 90mm. What's the stock intake? 85mm?

The fast is 90mm. What's the stock intake? 85mm?

Isn't it either 75mm or 78mm?

ya it's not 85mm LOL

LS6 TB is 78mm i thought the LS6 intake was the same. LS1 should be smaller.

stock ls1 tb is 75mm guys. Fast makes a 78mm intake and throttle body to along with the 92 and now the 102.

Call them and demand a lighter part lol. Be sure you are using an accurate scale.
