evandostert Posted November 20, 2011 Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 Maybe boring but I am gonna walk through my fast install. I ordered this new purge valve so no trimming was required. Push the grey tab inwards to release The top of it. What other cap will fit that green thing is super ugly???? Disconnect the brake booster, the wiring harness TB, PCV and both fuel pressure fittings off rail. These come off first just pull them up and pull them off the wire. Stock intake off what a mess. Fresh air for PVC system Taking a drill to a 1000$ piece of plastic is fear inducing . Intake on for a test fit. No spacers for purge valve so if you tighten all the way is will sit crooked. I am going to shim later for now it works. Drilled New Map sensor and attached also brake booster hose on. 15/32 drill bit is not the most common and probably not in your tool box. I gave it a scrub with scotch brite pad and brake cleaner ok major issue. No matter what coolant crossover you use it will not work. I ordered the GM part from Fast directions. FAIL I had to take a break before I slammed my head into a wall. So I installed the fuel rails with the fast kit. Horrible directions Horrible more of a headache I went back and added the new coolant crosover. I made it work with a very large mallett. I should never have had to do this .

A_FUrious Posted November 20, 2011 Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 Thanks for the pics and write up . I too am interested in this intake. What plate did you use to fit the factory TB to the manifold? Also did you happen to see this writeup on Truckin.com ? I know they're using a 4.8 but was the outcome of the coolant crossover the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandostert Posted November 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 Absolutely no way they didn't have more issues that they stated. They are Biased to selling stuff. They also mess up the motor. I am sure that thing was leaking all over the place. Must have sounded like a whistle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
