Default FAST 90 intake help

Have a quick question bout using the old coolant lines that go under the manifold and was wondering if they fit under the new manifold or not. Also, after the install, the engine turns over, starts for a split second, then shut back down... What are we doing wrong? Any advice or pictures would help greatly. Thanks.

They don't fit, FAST instructions explicitly state they must be changed and give part numbers. Hope you didn't crack the bottom.

Remove & inspect the intake for cracks. Bend the coolant line alittle, I just did this last weekend, also inspect you MAP senser on the backside of the intake. I pulled one of the wires out of the plug on mine and it was running like ****, I order a new off of ebay spliced it in, she's running again no problems. Did you change out the valley cover bolts?

Hope this help alittle.

for right now we aborted the fast intake install as we didnt have the coolant hoses, hooked up the ls1 intake back up and everything's peachy, just need to figure out how to seal up the EGR hole now.

You need a 1-3/8" adjustable freeze plug for the EGR hole in the LS1 manifold. You can cut/weld the stock coolant pipe to make plugs/front pipe if you have a welder.

Remember to replace the valley cover bolts with the button heads that come with the FAST manifold too or you'll definatly crack it.
