[sheck44]

Same here, will be looking to get one of these this winter but would be great to get some feedback from anyone that has some 1st hand experience ....

I ordered mine a couple weeks ago, due to arrive this Friday! Also getting the dual-sync distributor for timing control. I will post on the progress and results of conversion ( problems etc..) I have.... Been waiting awhile for this little piggy$$$ to come to market.

I ordered mine a couple weeks ago, due to arrive this Friday! Also getting the dual-sync distributor for timing control. I will post on the progress and results of conversion ( problems etc..) I have.... Been waiting awhile for this little piggy$$$ to come to market.

Will be good to hear, but I will probably already have mine ordered by then.. I actually called today to get it, but will call back on Tuesday to order it. I'm actually ordering the basic kit. I already have a MSD distributor, with a phasable msd rotor, locked out at 36deg, and just upgraded my fuel system with the aeromotive tank. I just recently purchased a ProSystems Carb (that I paid around $750), that I guess I will sell now..kinds sucks wish I would have kown I was going to go this route sooner....

[obengston]

Also if anyone has a suggestion... My WOT switch currently on my carb.... Where could this be mounted with this system. It currently is activated with the secondary side, but this system does not have that side available. Where else could you put a WOT switch?

Have had the fast 2.0 efi setup on the car for 6 weeks and its been 6 weeks of living hell loading up 02 sensors errors now iac error every time the car goes above 5k .. on phone with tech dept more than I have been on the phone my adult life most of the time they are clueless to the problems because the system is too new I received the first system sent to new York saw it at sema and fell in love had to have it because of its looks and supposed performance promises called them for months waiting for setup to be advailable and should waited it cost me the whole month of august cruising and car shows because system would not work and now the needle that broke the hay stack leaving the biggest car show on long island the eisonhower park car show 1700 cars and system took a **** car had to be flat bedded home don't know what to do now carb is going back on after thousands spent on new fuel system and shops to try to tune and would sound awesome and we think wow finally fixed then turn off or get on the car and back in **** mode the people down at fast are awesome just wish the system was everything promised

Heck of a first post. There are quite a few folks waiting to hear if this thing works as advertised. Can you tell us a little more about your setup? Engine size, compression, HP, ignition type, fuel delivery? Hate that you are the lab rat on this but you can sure save the rest of us if it doesn't work out....
It sounds like FAST is at least trying to help.

hate to hear of the problems. Luckily I haven't had any issues with my holley terminator. I got one of the first units and it worked as advertised with no issues whatsoever. took it on the full power tour 1 week after putting it on. Hopefully you'll get the fast up and going.

[obengston]

Oh...no I just praying you got a lemon...Sucks mine should be here this week. Well fingers crossed. Maybe I should cancel my order on tomorrow...IDK

[Bilco547]

how do you post profile pics and pics of your ride on this site

[Ketzer]

Bilco,
Thank you for posting specs on your engine! I too have a healthy big block I want to convert to this setup. One of FASTs main selling points is they can support high HP engines.Please post back as you get it straightened out!

Was there any issue with your fuel type and the sensors? I'm assuming you aren't just running on pump gas.

Did you do a return line? A lot of these systems advertise one is not needed and then dont work properly until one is installed. I wanted to use this system on my next build and avoid the complexity of a multi-port. Please keep us posted. Good luck, I can sympathize with your frustration.

[Fastrun72]

Well that really sucks. I just received my kit last week and will be installing soon I guess I'm going to roll the dice instead of returning it. Wish me luck!

[Ketzer]

There's a ton of development in that thing. I wouldn't be going into it thinking the worst. I think Bilco has several issues as yet undiagnosed. You may not have any of his issues.
He says FAST has been very supportive ( and well they should, this is their premier flagship product).

Well I have started the install on mine. Looks like a mess right now, but once done will be clean, as I'm hiding everything. Will let everyone know once I have it up and running good or bad, but expecting good things...fingers crossed.

[quickchicken]

one thing I can suggest is pay MUCH MUCH attn. to things that create electrical noise. if your o2 harness runs near your plug wires, HEI, and the alt. this will give you fits. a friend on another board had elec noise which caused much issues. once he sorted this out he could work further on the fuel/ spark setup. talked to him the other week and said his ez classic is running killer.

on my ez I mainly had dizz noise issues on my o2 from my DUI HEI and once I got my pn14000 dui diz remote coil it fixed the issue instantly. until I got my new DUI I laid my o2 harness across my plenum. ugly but it worked. no my harness is tucked down behind the block where it needs to be. when my current motor comes out for the 383 swap I plan to clean up the needed factory harness parts and the ex harness.

[obengston]

Well I finished the install today. Tomorrow I will go through the initial setup, and hopefully everything goes as planned (fingers crossed again) I will have it running. Will report back and let everyone know how it turns out for me..

[obengston]

Well I turned the Unit on today, entered the required information, and turned the key. It initially did not start, so I feathered the throttle some as it started up and was running really bad. Since I did not re verify my MSD distributor as stated in the instructions, I knew by the sound it was timing related. I reset my distributor, and it cranked up. I kept the RPM elevated for about two min, then let it settle down. SOunds really good, restarted several times with no issues. Was going to take it for a ride, but it shut off on me while idling. As if it lost complete power. I started it up several times and it would run/idle great with excellent throttle response, but kept just shutting off. I finally moved all the wiring harness around ( I have it kinda crammed in a small area) and it stayed running. I think it was the hot wire coming from the battery (it has a fuse that the wire enters/exits). Ran out of daylight, so will get it started back up this week, if it stays running then I wil take it for some short runs. Other than the small issue it seems to be reacting well, was able to control my timing, fans, enter what air fuel I want... Im excited to really put this to the test.

[Fastrun72]

Glad to hear the somewhat positive results so far, keep us updated as you go please. I just started to install mine and am really taking my time locating all the wires & harnesses away from elec. interference. so far everything looks well made and packaged nicely. I took the car out for one last run with the carburetor and it was running awesome so the bar has been set pretty high for me, don't disappoint me FAST....

[obengston]

I will update later today. I'm almost positive (my only issue was it shutting off) was due to the alternator went out. It will be fixed today. Pretty sure this thing is going to perform great...,
