Default Last question on fast install

I am just about to bolt the fast 92 down. Everything else is done. Do I need to use the nuts or small washers on the long 10 bolts? The stockers were just the one washer and bolt.

No, the nuts on the bottom of the intake bolts are just to hold it together during shipping I think.

Either way, you dont use them.

Thanks a lot. It seemed that way. Just funny they give you extra washers and nuts, but don't include the gaskets or certain other bolts.. oh well, least I scheduled my bj from them..

Seemed like it lined up fine except the front was up a little. Then I noticed the intake wasn't going to seat properly as long as the new coolant pipe was there. I bent it down to get it out of the way (the gm kit one, used to replace the x coolant pipe). Is this common?

Slightly bending the coolant crossover tube wont affect anything.

I have to say after spending several hours of testing a car that I drive everyday. This was worth every penny. My cousin's M6 02 z28 and I used to be nearly neck and neck, for some reason I would usually walk a step on him a hint. No more of that I walk him and pull in third. Fairly hard. Throttle response and feel is night and day. A car I loved became even more adored tonight. I enjoy this modding thing.
