Want to install a FAST LSX R intake on my C6.Tech at FAST could not tell me for sure if the stock C6 fuel rail covers would still fit.Anybody out there know if they will?Thanks in advance for any input.

Oh sorry fuel rail covers... for sure not if you use the FAST rails... with the stock rails "IF" you can use them on the LS2 I would think it will work just be a bit taller. Or at least it seems so..

Not sure on the LS2, but on the LS3 you need the spacer kit for the injectors to use the stock fuel rail. 146025-KIT

kinda will lay over rather ok. since I have the billet rails on mine i needed to trim them a bit to help them grab. they don't hold as nicely, but they can't go anywhere. mine is obviously the ls7.

The covers fit fairly well, the intake runners on the fast don't exactly match the stock covers. This on an LS3. I decided I like the unfinished look with out the plastic covers on the engine.

Thread Jacked!!!
How often will you take your car off of the tender, start it and let it run?

never, every time you dry start it you hurt it. it also creates condensation in the oil which is a bad thing of course. New oil just before storage, tender on (this one is automatic so leave it), fuel stabilizer and cover. and start when you're ready to take her out. Some guys will even take the valve covers off and poor a little oil over the rockers before starting. i think they spray fast enough so not really needed.

Wow, I have never lived where it's cold, so thanks for the info.
I have farm equipment that sits and that was my interest in the battery tender.

Thanks dmoney, I was not a fan of the factory fuel rail covers so I always remove them.
