Sweet build dude!!
I noticed in one of your pictures that your fresh air line that went from your valve cover to the air intake was capped off? I have been reading that you are supposed to run a fresh air line when swapping to the fast. Any reason why you didnt??

Thanks....
That line was just recirculating the crank case air and releasing crank case pressure. They put a breather on the valve cover instead (hope they remember to plug the hole on the vararam)..haha.
I haven't heard of the fresh air to the Fast being necessary ?

The FAST needs no other fresh air intake other than the snout it'self to feed the motor. Due to the build, the breather mod does several things...prevents any oil mist from back-flowing into the air bridge or throttle body, allows a freer flow of filtered fresh air into the crankcase to flush out the harmfull gasses, and it allows ventinting of excees crankcase pressure at high RPM's that would normally be pushed back into the air intake.

dyno results
All right...early reports are about 3 rwhp lower than what I expected. About 13 lower than I had hoped for. Tracy is doing a little more tweaking today...lets see what he can squeeze out of it. 
Anyone care to guess (383 stroker, AFR255's, med cam for street\strip) ?
