Notes: Get some high temp. silicone & put a bead around each head inlet port & each manifold exit port; or just put the a on both sides of the gaskets.
This will ensure no manifold leaks.
Absolutely the best thing you can do for the Weiand, is to put a heat shield/blanket under the intake (between the intake & block). I used a DEI (modified) intake blanket. One could use a header blanket (modified) or even strips of header heat wrap. Anything used to shield the manifold from the blocks' heat will be helpful.

Install is just like any other intake pretty much. The correct bolts for the intake are allen head bolts & they are shorter than the stock bolts. I had a set of paper gaskets cut to fit my ported Lingenfelter intake, but I didn't have the correct fittings in the back of the intake so it had to be removed.
When I put it back on I'm ordering these gaskets from Summit. They are designed to work with Aluminum intakes for LS motors.

im curious as well as to how this thing performs in comparison to an ls6..im sure it isn't as good as a FAST, but the one im looking at is ported, so perhaps its close..
