Fuel rails for a stock LS3 intake that aren't red?

[Jim85IROC]

Does anybody make fuel rails for a stock LS3 intake in a color that isn't red? All I can find for LS3 rails are FAST, Aeromotive and BBK, and they're all red. Everybody else that's making aftermarket rails in natural/black seem to only offer them for FAST intakes and not the stock intakes.

If I have to I could always powdercoat a set of FAST rails, but I'd rather not go through the hassles if I can just find a damned black or natural set to begin with.

Thanks for posting this, im going through the same issue.

Probably not the option you want to hear...but oven cleaner actually does a pretty tremendous job of removing anodizing and leaving you with a natural sort of finish.

Have you checked at Summit?

[L92 fox]

Yeah, my good friend is a summit dealer and he can't find any.

I might try the oven cleaner. I can't believe that works.

I bought Wilson Manifolds rails and they are black. They look really good too.

wilson, Nasty, and everybody else that I can find only list ls1/6 or FAST-manifold rails.

Edit: wilson's description mentions ls2/7 even though their cart doesn't show it. Perhaps an email is in order.

Let me know what you find out. Does anyone have part numbers?

Check out the Mast black label rails.

Thanks. Now I just need to find a part number and a price. Mast's website really isn't very helpful.

We used the Summit ones on my 76 intake. The injector spacing is all the same on all the rails. The mounting tabs and hardware are whats different. My son made custom hold downs for ours. Lowes has some nice metric sized bolts and washers.

^That's what i'll be going with if I don't come across an intake with fuel rails already.

These are what they look like in the packaging.

[Jim85IROC]

Those Wilsons look great. Where did you buy them from? According to the part number on the packaging, those are the rails for ls1/ls6 intake manifolds. I don't think those will work with the LS3 manifold without making my own mounting brackets.

I found the Mast rails at Pace, but they were shown as "discontinued". I emailed Pace and their response said that Mast no longer sells fuel rails.

I emailed Mast to find out if they're still available or not, but I haven't heard back yet.

[mebuildit]

I ordered them from Summit and yes they sent the wrong ones. The only difference is the mounting tabs, the rails are the same. So they just sent me the new mounting tabs and everything worked out fine.

[Jim85IROC]

How long ago? Summit only lists the LS1-style and in purple. :-/

[Jim85IROC]

Well, I got an email back from Mast. They confirmed that their LS3 rails are discontinued.

I also got an email back from Wilson. They stated that they offer rails for LS1/LS6/LS7 only.

Balls.

Guess nobody builds ls3's these days...
