There is alot fo report problems with COMP items, quality control has gone down the toilet for sure.

Man I put a vic jr and a 4bbl tb on an 02 silvy w/ a 408 and it pulls so hard! Its a shame to pay that much for an intake that won't seal off. I love that startup flare by the way, ....lmao

lol i know eh, can u hear that massive vaccum leak under the hood?!?!!? lol

Its just so frustrating i spent alot of time and money putting this together and thats what i got...and its not like its installed wrong, its jsut a shitty product. I intially called FAST and all i got was attitude over there tech line. Dipshit told me its my fault cause of the heads i used etc. I then proceeded to scholl him at his own job, he passed me off to someone knowledgable. Told me I gotta return intake to fast for inspection.

Its pretty basic, run a straight edge over the intake runners and NONE of them sit level, there all over the place

The only way I see this could be a head problem is if someone angle milled your heads, and that does not sound like the case here. If it failed your straight edge test, it is the intake. Too bad an intake that expensive isn't perfect. I agree on getting the VIC Jr, they have made intakes for years.
