Default FAST + FRC's

Anyone know how to get the FRC's to fit the FAST intake, and appear stock? Any ideas or PICS of what you have done would be great.

I'm in the FAST intake process myself and I have seen a photo or two witht he FRC and FAST intake, from what I was told just take a dremel tool and carve out the bottom portions of the covers so that the cover the runners of the FAST intake.

Let us know your results, and pics too when you are done. I am probably going to head that way myself. We'll see.

My FRC's went back on like stock..just sit a little higher from the stock fuel rails spaced up for the taller F.A.S.T. No cutting required.

I presently have the stock covers on my FAST and it truly fits well enough. You can also 'scribe' the outline of the intake and use a dremel tool to shape the covers a little better.

I recently ordered some custom mag red Lingenfelter branded coil covers through 21st Century Muscle Cars and I asked that LPE cut them specifically for the FAST intake.....I'll see when they arrive how precise they fit.

Just slapped mine back on, looks like c5grandsport's... not perfect but close enough. To make mine look totally stock, I sanded off the Wilson logo and painted the intake black.
