im interested in your research here. your experience in tuning and boosted applications shows that venting the rear ports is unnecessary? please elaborate...

you realize i never said it would fit under a 102? i just posted a pic of what i made for my motor to give the op and idea of what could be done. there are lots of different fittings on the market that could easily be used to fit under or over or around any intake. i was merely giving an example.

Kurt urban makes one, as already mentioned.
Also, many older small blocks have been drilled and tapped to bring water up to the front. The tbi engines and newer take water from that area of intake, and cross under the intake to the front.
The older engines without this water passage cast into the intake can and are modified to bring water from the back of The head to the front thru tubing and fittings, much like the stock 97-00 ls1's.

You don't need the whole kit, just the adapters for the rear with 45* fittings(needed with the FAST 102 intake) off the adapters. I'd then route it around the passenger side of the with the FAST and up to the front. Since you need to use the 45* fittings you'll need to figure out exactly what -AN fittings you need to use.

well mine is
but the air /steam can then escape from the over flow tube i thought ?
in stead of being returned to the main flow
or does steam just return to lquid un like air wich needs to be bleed of from the highest point
