Default Clutch/Diff installation with FAST Intake

Getting ready to install my FAST intake but also have a DTE Stage IV waiting for installation as well. Has anyone done a clutch or rear with a FAST installed, any issues lowering the rear end as required with this intake in place vs. the stock intake? Wondering if it hits the cowl quicker.

Nobody has installed a clutch with the FAST intake on their car?

Leave the hood open?

You might have to grind the FAST a very TINY bit to get it to get it to clear without it being very snug against the hood when you close it.

I did my Z06 clutch 2 weeks ago with my fast installed. I didnt have any problems with it hitting the firewall.

Did mine with the LS1 intake not the fast. Its close but I think it would be manageable. Let us know what happens.

I didn't notice that the LS6 intake moved much at all when I did my clutch. It is tight with the Fast in there though. Good Luck, it isn't that bad if you have some helping hands.
