We will see this week buddy, but I would suspect 10 or so considering you have a pretty nasty combo! EB Z06 with a LME 408 is a AWESOME setup!

of course, after throwing a single plane into the mix with this, the fast 90 sales are about to drop like a stone LOL.

Can't wait for the results.... get on with this!

Yeah, I'm waiting to see the results myself. I've got a stock fast 90 sitting in my living room waiting to go on. I've been debating on porting it myself or getting it ported before installing. I'm holding off waiting to see the results.

I doubt I'll be able to get my hands on a GMPP by then, but if anyone has one I'll insure it and ship it back as soon as we are done. I may be able to get ahold of a ported Vic along with a stock Vic though. Honestly I'd rather have the GM one as it fits under the cowl better with Aarons elbow on it. Where are you guys seeing the best price GMPP one, hell I'll buy one for testing!

It is a 383 with a 243/250 112+4 cam and a set of TEA 2.5 LS6 heads. Can has already made 501/453 with a ported FAST on it.

Nope. I've got an uninstalled FAST 90 sitting in the garage, so I'm anxiously awaiting the results.

How much more than a a stock fast is it to have somebody like mamo port it? That is what will tell me if porting is worth it.

mamno gets 500 to do the job on a new intake. I looked into it, and seriously woule have to have my head examined to put another 500 into an 800 dollar plastic intake.

For that kind of $ I can buy an edlebrock and have it ported with a good elbow, which I am 100% will perform better. Hell I can sell my fast that's on my car for what it woudl cost me to get an edlebrock and the rails/throttle cable, and I don't think it would be more then 500 to have an edlebrock ported.



But, I am still very curious as to the results of this test, if the mamo/any other porting yields any serious results, I will pull my intake and port it myself, I have pic's of a ported intake that would be easy enough with a dremel and a small sanding drum to copy.
