**SOLD**

This is a used Fast 90 intake for a LS1/LS6 engine. I am pretty sure it will also fit a LS2 but I guess you would need to confirm that before purchase. Unfortunately I had recently purchased this for $650 knowing that it had been repaired before, however, despite the assurance from the previous owner, the manifold leaked. I did not find this out until after it was installed and the car was not running correctly. I had done some other modifications at the same time and was unable to determine it was the manifold that was causing my car to run poorly. I replaced the computer as that was what was initially diagnosed and after a bunch of money it was finally determined to be the manifold. The car was my daily driver and TJ over at Baker Engineering was not keen on repairing the manifold for me, so I went with a new one as I needed my car and couldn't afford to have it out of comission any longer.

I tried to contact "Under Pressure" about some type of reimbursement/compromise or splitting the difference but he would never even return my request. Here was the conversation:

Thats fine on the payment. It was plastic welded so its never going to leak both inside and out. LMK before you send payment as I have another buyer.

LONG STORY SHORT: I am just trying to recoop some of my money as I ended up spending another $900 on a fast 102 since I had already sold my LS6 intake and bought a 90mm TB.

NO GUARANTEE ON THIS!! I am being completely up front with everything and tried to take good photos of the damage. The manifold was ported and will fit a stock or 90mm throttle body, I think a 92mm will work as well?

There are 2 places that need repair: 1) There is a small crack in the bottom where I have an up close picture and this was where you can see that it was repaired previously. (It is more of a slit that should be easily fixed but this is where it was reportedly fixed previously) After I took the top off, I also discovered that there is a piece that is cracked off where the top bolts down to the base. (I have a couple pictures of this, one with me holding it next to the place where it broke (the picture is a little deceiving due to the angle but it is next to the seal and does not interfere with the orange seal) and one where I set it back on (so you can see it resting in place. I think it will easily glue back into place without compromising the seal or posing an leak issue as it was not noticable at all until I took the top manifold off today. I was not aware of it as I never separated the top and base). Also, when I took the photos of the intake together it was in place)

I am pretty sure that some epoxy will hold this just fine as the piece fits in perfectly and I could not tell it was cracked or broken until the top was removed. Again, there are NO GUARANTEES!! This is being sold AS IS. I just paid $650 and am out that money. If I didn't think it could be fixed, I wouldn't sell it at all but I am not an expert so judge yourself. It would be a very inexpensive FAST intake and should have a nice power gain if one can fix it but I guess there is some risk involved. I just do not want to fix it and sell it like the person did before me and end up surprising someone else. I would rather do the right thing and be completely upfront. Judge for yourself by the pics. $325 shipped anywhere in the continental USA. Please pay with pay pal.
Thanks
