FAST intake warning
The worst thing about it is that I knew it. I should have just finished it the first night, it would have never happened. When your pressed for time, sometime you do stupid things. Oh well, its just another $400.00 ):

Luckly I still had the bag of bolts it cam with....

For those folks who may not have easy access to a grinder... There has got to be a cheaper place to get those bolts. $27...That's crazy! They might be available at some sort of specialty shop if not at Home Depot. I just got a used manifold but am still overseas so I can't exactly just go out and look, anyone find any lately?
WOW lol, sad to say add another to the list.
I read directions usually, but I guess I only wanted to know the torque value of the main bolts lol.
Guess I'll pull it off and check since my car is down anyways!
Hope I still have that hardware!

Does this issue also apply when installing the FAST 90 on a LS2 C6 Corvette? I am in the process of having mine ported, and would like to know before re-installing. I purchased the MAP relocation kit, C6 firewall kit, and LS2 fuel rail adapter kit, because the FAST 90 was not made to be a direct bolt-on for my car.

27$ isn't that bad actually. I bought 10 bolts from lowes for 30 something $ when i lost all my tranny bolts.. Metric bolts are not cheap.
Pay up.
