fast intake install dose anybody know of all the parts needed to install this intake on my car. all i have is the intake, tb, mani gaskets and tb gaskets. what all is needed to install? my car is a ls1 intake car. im just trying to cut the cost if the cam/intake install cus im all broke now?
It should have come with all the parts needed. You do have to change the valley plate bolts from the stock, to a button head screw. You could reuse the stock port gaskets, but I'd get new ones to ensure a solid seal. You can reuse the stock bolts, but beware, I broke one, by tightening in sequence, over and over to make sure I had a good seal..
Just make sure you have it on tight, dont just go by the manual TQ specs & call it a day. I did that, & had ll kinds of tuning issues, that ended up being a vacume leak around the ports, which was solved by torquing down the bolts, over & over, in sequence.
You will need a gasket around the TB.

my friend bought the Fast 92mm intake and we're installing it onto his '00 Trans Am w/ the stock LS1 valley cover and intake. What are these screws you mention and where do you get them? Also, i read on LS1HowTo.com something about changing coolant lines, do you HAVE TO do that or can use reuse the origionals?

nope not to late at all. Where do you get the bold you need? Also, do you have to replace the coolant lines or can you reuse the origional ones. I'm a lil confused; i kno this intake is based off of the LS6 one so r the requirements just like that of the LS6?
i believe the coolant lines have to be the ls6 versions.
if the car is an 01-02 than it already has them, or if you've already swapped an ls6 onto the engine.
otherwise you'd have to buy them i think
