Did you guys just use the stock fuel rail and tap it? Just cut and weld those little feed lines? or what?

If you're using the 86-88 aluminum rails then remove all of the junk on the ends and tap them with a 3/8" NPT tap. Then just get an adapter. If you're using the 89-91 steel rails then chop off the ends and weld steel male AN bungs on the ends.

fuel rail stock is cheap. Its almost easier just to mill an aluminum rail and keep your factory one.

It depends. I can drill and tap a stock rail in a few minutes, and then I'm done. The cutting and welding technique is also pretty quick. I like to stick with stock if I can to avoid leaks if I mess up.

hm thanks for the input i have to do something like this soon too, although i might just use rubber hose and AN hose barbs on the TWM fuel rail, simpler.
