Default Fuel rails for FAST ?

There are quite a few options out there for fuel rails now. What fuel rails are those of you with FAST intakes running ? Pros and cons ?

I've heard good things about the cheap e-bay rails. They are pretty much exactly like the more expensive FAST rails, just not the name brand.

I'm running FAST rails that I got from the classifieds. Just depends on the look you want - factory or not.

If you decide to go aftermarket rails, make sure you get all the fittings and hardware and not just the rails themselves, and make sure you get what is necessary to hook it up to your factory system.

If you are talking about a fast 92mm intake, then there is no need to upgrade the factory fuel rails unless for looks.

Last thing you want is to buy some fuel rails off ebay or off some backyard wannabe mechanic in the classifieds that have no hardware or no way of connecting it to your factory system, assuming your fuel system is still factory. Make sure the **** comes with everything that is needed to hook it up to your intake and the fuel system that is in place. 102mm fuel rails don't bolt up to 92mm fuel rails, and vice versa. You can drill new holes for the brackets, but better to just get the right parts.

There are ones on e-bay that come with all the needed parts, including crossover.

Holley makes a good looking kit that seems to be a cheaper alternative to the fast rails, someone correct me if I'm wrong though.

I'm running a 102 with LS3 injectors and LS2 fuel rail.

Pro - no need for spacers for the fuel rail however...Depending on what type injector you are using you may have to.

Con - Have to spring for the LS3 injector spacers ($39) and EV1 to EV6 adapters ($16)

Thanks

Yes, as long as all the stuff is there, you are set to go but I was referring to the listings for rails only.
