Default Few questions about FAST IM and TB install

I got a FAST 92/92 IM and TB and plan on getting them installed this Friday. So I was wondering if I need to buy new IM and TB gaskets for the install. Any other hardware I might need to do the job?

Thanks

I would get new IM gaskets from fast. And all the hardware should be with it, so should the tb gasket.

Weird that it didn't come with the IM gaskets. I guess I better place an order today so I get everything by Thursday

Thanks for a quick reply

What about fuel line conversion kit? Do I need to order that as well? Their website says that it's a requirment in order to connect stock fuel line to IM.

Pretty sure you need the LS6 crossover pipe at the front to allow either an LS6 or FAST intake (if you had an LS1 to begin with). I didn't have to do anything with the fuel lines/rails to get the stuff to bolt up.

Make sure you replace the valley cover bolts with the ones they (hopefully) supplied. And plan on using RTV to hold the MAP sensor in place.

They supplied valley cover bolts. And thanks for RTV advice.

I'm not doing the install myself, so I'm not too worried about it
