just bought a used ls7 fast lsxr 102 intake already has the fuel rails and injectors installed , didn't come with any bolts can I use the factory ls7 bolts? he say's I can, I think I need to buy the bolt kit...
Yes you can reuse your stock intake manifold bolts but you do need the button head bolts that the fast comes with to replace the valley cover bolts. The existing valley cover bolt heads sit too high and the button head bolts provided from fast fix that.
Thank you! was going to go to lowes and grab some low profile button bolts for the valley pan, didn't want to buy a bolt kit from fast its a $110 if I could resuse the intake bolts
you'll need to take the rails off to install i believe. you can't get to some bolts with it there. At least that's what I recall. I set it up and then had to dismantle lol oops
Also don't forget to drill the hole for the map sensor if you use one. you'll need to dismantle to top of the intake so that plastic debris doesn't fall inside. I know that there is actually a bunch of bolts that fast doesn't put in initially for you to dismantle it faster....make sure they are there as well.
started the install tonight, Westlake ace hardware store had the button top valley pan bolts m8 x 30mm, Now for you guys out there that buy a used fast intake, the factory ls7 intake bolts are too long for the fast intake , (manifold to cylinder heads) there about 4inches fast are about 3inches , m6x80mm. have to wait now till tomorrow to buy some that size to finish.

I really didn't think they were going to fit to be honest. But the first comment sounded so convinced like he's done it before that I said nothing as I wasn't 100% sure. I thought even the bolt heads were too big as my fast came with Allen key type bolts to save head size. It's great you have a place to get bolts like that. Around here I'd be ordering the kit for 110 as you mentioned before lol.
Do you need the torque specs? I have them if you'd like
