Default installing 92/92

Are there any good how to's for switching from ls6 to a fast 92/92 setup? Already bought new hardware. Anything else I will need? Want to do it today or tomorrow.

there on a bunch on here if you do a search but a few key things make sure you use the correct valley cover bolts, you have to use the ls6 style coolant crossover, be carefull when removing your old intake and not break the oil pressure switch, and the map sensor mounting sucks on a fast it dont fit tight i used silicon to glue the map sensor in place not the best solution but it worked lol

I just slightly bent my coolant crossover, didn't need to buy anything. Make sure to torque down everything right with an in/lb tq wrench.

I don't know why they can't get the hole right for the map sensor but I went to the hardware store and bought some 3/4" x 3' flat steel. I bent it with my vice and made a nice "c" shaped bracket in about 20min. Then I painted it black and put some industrial Velcro (the soft side) on the inside of the bracket to hold the sensor down nice and snug.
