Switched from the Fast to Holley...
Just a pic thought id share
Install wasn't bad at all...

Now all I need is a hood ,I'm really hoping the 3" Harwood will clear...

Ehhh just cut a whole in your hood and let it all hang out lol Looks awesome bud.

B-_-RAD · 02-23-2014, 09:02 PM

How much did you have to modify the cowl?

Firefighter · 02-23-2014, 09:16 PM

I want to know the dyno numbers compared to the FAST...

I worry that this is going to be a tq killer on your car man. You just moved the entire powerband up by about 800 rpms or so. That's fine if you have aggressive gearing and A LOT of converter. But on small cam street rides, its hard to beat a properly worked LS3 Manifold.

Good luck with it bud.

I wonder if you could use a shorter motor mount for some more cowl clearance. I wouldn't want to lose a wiper or cut the cowl really

SlowTurtle · 02-23-2014, 10:21 PM

Rhino is on the right track. You need a custom cam made for a tunnel ram, and a lot of converter to go fast with it.

Bad70supreme · 02-23-2014, 10:39 PM

I can't wait to see results! I agree it might actually hurt, although I have no idea your car setup. In the olds world edelbrock came out with a victor intake, that thing actually made more power then any intake out above 3k even on a very mild setup. So you never know!

62nalide · 02-23-2014, 11:18 PM

Looking forward to the results with the new setup Zach!

B-_-RAD · 02-23-2014, 11:24 PM

What tb are you using? What size is the inlet on the Holley?

Chevrolade · 02-24-2014, 03:05 PM

Yea it's getting a bigger cam and nitrous outlet kit along with a nice converter and 3:91s...
102 intake ,oem TB,Nick Williams 102 is on back order...
Eventually car will be boosted with a 80e...till then I'll play with it like this ,thx

Jason 98 TA · 02-24-2014, 04:32 PM

definitely dyno before & after before buying the hood. I often see guys remove that intake after seeing how the power shifts up. :( It is awesome looking though, just needs big rpm.

Jason 98 TA · 02-24-2014, 04:32 PM

I believe the nick Williams throttle bodies we have in stock
