Fast intake install question
Im installing a new fast 92 and there is a small vacuum port on the back. There however does not appear to be a vacuum hose that goes to it. It has a little black plug on it though. Is there a vacuum hose and Im just missing it?
Also after putting the fuel rail in I notice that the mount holes for the rail dont line up. WTF is going on here?

Use can use the Fast fuel rail adapters or large washers to catch the fuel rail tabs. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-t...2-install.html
Also someone on here carefully bent the tabs at an angle and was able to get them on. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-t...rail-mods.html
Haljensen is right about the Bi-Mode vacuum nipple.

I used washer for the rail install. Thanks guys. It seems kind of hokey but I guess it will have to do for the value in HP.
I dont have bi mode exhaust so I did a little research and that isnt used unless you have bi mode. Problem solved I guess.

I bent the fuel rail mounting tabs using a bench vice and Crescent wrench. Came out great.
I bought the spacers but did not like the look of the raised fuel rail. So if anyone wants the spacers, send me a PM.

Actually, bending the tabs is not difficult. You have to just take is slow and check your progress frequently.
The fuel rails themselves remain in their original configuration and its just the tabs that are bent to match up with the intake manifold.
