Zedyone_kenobi Posted June 20, 2012 Share #4 Posted June 20, 2012 Fantastic! Just fantastic...I bought that same 6 AN stock you did, (really great price, huh!). Stuff is VERY nice. Also, run some aluminum polish on it and it will shine like sparkling new chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben's Z Posted June 21, 2012 Share #6 Posted June 21, 2012 How do you go about drilling the main line to feed all 6 injectors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grantf Posted June 21, 2012 Share #7 Posted June 21, 2012 looks strait forward and simple, but my question is why? I see people using aftermarket fuel rails and homemade ones from time to time but is there a reason other than it looks neat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siteunseen Posted June 21, 2012 Author Share #8 Posted June 21, 2012 Ben the aluminium rail already has the 1/2" feed line drilled in it http://www.rossmachineracing.com/dash6.html. And yes that is Blue, blue & blue white twisted pair phone wire. FYI everybody on DSL that's all it takes to connect you to the info highway, 2 little wires. Coaxial is the way to go. And my quest is to do away with all hardlines on my motor. They get crudded up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
78sid Posted June 21, 2012 Share #9 Posted June 21, 2012 Very nice and thanks for the info. On my 78, I've got my OEM setup rehabbed and running well, but I strongly considered going this route rather than take the time to clean it up. It may sound like a stupid question, but when you do something like this, do you regulate the fuel pressure by replacing the stock fuel pump with an adjustable one?

Ben's Z Posted June 21, 2012 Share #10 Posted June 21, 2012 You ordered 2 feet?

Ben's Z Posted June 21, 2012 Share #11 Posted June 21, 2012 I'd like to know the answer to this as I am going to be installing a Bell Engineering Rising Rate FPR with my 280zxt swap. It still requires the OE regulator. Very nice and thanks for the info.

Zedyone_kenobi Posted June 21, 2012 Share #12 Posted June 21, 2012 Here is the same fuel rail used on my car. From the same manufacturer. I had to hook up one of those cheap holley fuel pressure regulators on the passenger firewall. Mine is dead headed, but both ends of the fuel rail are tapped just in case I want to run a return line. I have the rail drilled and tapped for a pressure regulator at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
