Powdercoated FAST 90
Here's mine, ported and painted by Tony Mamo:

I swapped the black oxide hardware for ARP stainless 12pt bolts and nylock nuts:
Tony installs M6 x 1.0 threaded inserts in the throttle body flange, very nice feature:

He wasn't sure how well the intake would make it through the powder coating process and was worried it would warp worse than the FAST's already are. Very logical reason and after dropping that much coin in this plastic wonder I didn't want to risk it.

Exactly what I did with mine. All ARP Stainless 12pt bolts with stainless nylock nuts.

I searched by could not find it, my FAST bolts are rusting aready. I would love to get some nice SS bolts.
Did you have to take the manifold apart to get it powder coated? Can the internal gaskets handle the 400* baking of the powder coating?

Thanks Bro... thepowdercoater.com & FREE!!! 
He had a standing offer to do the first FAST for FREE, I did not even know it till I asked how much & Mike said $15 shipping 
He has done many LS6, but this was his first FAST 90
It's actually some kind of advanced polymer
I never even asked, and since I got the free promo deal it never came up
I have a lot invested in "Tony Mamo" Ported FAST 90/90 so I am proud to show it...not interested in stealth especially with my supercharger under the hood 
Thanks Everybody If your interested you can contact Mike at www.thepowdercoater.com

Here is the ARP bolt information:
Intake manifold bolt kit: 430-2101 (M6 x 1.0 x LONG)
If using nylock nuts for upper to lower bolts:
2 each: 770-1001 (M6 x 1.0 x 20mm) - These are ARP bulk packs of 5 each so you will have 4 bolts left over.
6 each: M6 x 1.0 stainless nylock hex nuts from the local hardware store
If using standard nuts for upper to lower bolts:
2 each: 770-1017 (M6 x 1.0 x 16mm) - These are ARP bulk packs of 5 each so you will have 4 bolts left over.
6 each: M6 x 1.0 stainless hex nuts from the local hardware store
well if you have a supercharger there is no point in hiding it. But that was just my opinion. However quick question...why port a FAST if youre going FI? Hell paying for the FAST alone is almost not worth the money compared to just buying a UD pulley for the supercharger. If ''FORCED'' Induction. Just wondering.

Thanks Bro
Good point that has been asked many times. It is just a personal want of having the best GEN III intake available to squeeze most power out of my setup without having to add boost & overspin my little V2 S-Trim any higher. I gained 23rwhp & torque increase was over 25, I cannot remember. You're right, decreasing pulley size would have been more cost effective to gain power However I did make gains without adding boost, still at 9.4psi. My goal is to make 700rwhp at 10psi or less with V2 S-Trim by having max efficient setup...still working on a couple of different angles that I expect will yield a little more power
