It's for the ls6 intake, but it's pretty much the same

The key to the FAST install is to use the button head valley cover bolts that come with the intake. If you don't you WILL crack the bottom of the intake causing vaccum leaks and costing about $350 to fix.

You can download the install guide from FAST's website (I have it but its a 4 MB file I can't post here)

Here ya go!

I took mine off (came with motor) to clean it up, and I used their website for the torque value on the bolts. The long ones that go through the intake to the head. Well...one of them felt like it was starting to strip. Im scared that they are all way too tight now.

I think Im going to pull it back off to replace the gaskets and fix the MAP sensor leak...so Ide like to know what everyone is doing for making sure the bolts are all tightend properly...
