Default Need a little help/advice on truck fuel rail options

I've been lurking/reading for a while now. I don't have a whole lot to contribute since the LSx platform is new to me. I did a search but didn't find what I'm looking for since most guys went with the car manifolds.

I have a 5.3 out of a 2001 truck. The fuel system is the return type. I would like to go with return-less and the vette filter. What are my options for a fuel rail that fits? The car rails look like the cross over will hit, and I've read the truck injectors are too tall for it. The harness work is done and I don't want to change the connectors at the injectors. I want to stick with the truck intake.

Any options that will work?

The F-body raid won't fit the truck intake.

The car injectors are different from the truck injectors, including the electrical plug

Why not just block the return on the truck rail and use the return on the corvette regulator?

Eliminate the regulator at the rail too? No pulse damper needed?

Or swap to the truck returnless rails. The 05 up trucks are all returnless now.

yes, seems like returnless fuel rail would work in place
