Just got my FAST intake manifold delivered to Sweden, however, there were bolts missing in the Air intake and no gaskets included?
Tried to put in the old gaskets from the stock LS1 manifold but they seemed too "thin", how is it possible to deliver an intake manifold without the proper gaskets????
Yes, make sure you use the FAST gaskets. You should have gotten one for the throttle body though. You can just re-use the stock intake bolts, but make sure you change the valley cover bolts or you will damage the new intake. I didn't bother using the FAST supplied intake bolts as they rust very quickly. I painted the valley cover bolts so they won't rust later.

Yepp, have to order the FAST gaskets, another week or two then...
Stupid question but english is not my first language... what do you mean with VALLEY COVER BOLTS? The bolts to the plate beneath the intake and in between the cylinder heads?
Correct, it is the plate that sits between the heads that has the knock sensors in it. You will replace those bolts with the new button head bolts. I painted mine as they rust too.
