Default OK, I've done some searches, but please post pics of fuel rail installs

Like I said, I've done some searches and have found some great examples of installs, but I'd like to see some more.

This will be on a GTO, so the plumbing will be a tad different, but, close enough to be the same.

Thanks for your help guys.

The first one is the setup before I put it in, notice the rails are only joined at the back.

In the second picture the rails are still joined at the back but also have a linking pipe at the front too now.

None of a GTO, but some F-Body picts (you may have to go through some of the albums to find the fuel rails):

With the GTO, the factory hard line is at the fire wall and with the fittings that Speed Inc supply, I can't really see how they plan on you plumbing it.

I'll get some good pics of the install so you guys can see what I'm talking about.

daveread00ss - You found a photo of my rail setup on photobucket, it seems to be becoming famous, was on another thread too.

Joining to the factory lines could have been a pain in the *** for me, as there are no local shopsw with quick disconnect tools and certainly no connectors to fit on them. I chose a braided hose with an internal diameter of 11mm (about half inch) Slid this over the factory hard line and then used a couple of cable clamps to hold it. Was an extremly tight fit.

The parts that are supplied for the GTO kit are the parts that are supplied for the F Bod kit and it just isn't quite the same. Hopefully I'll get that stuff done next week and post pics.

Got mine from SpeedFlow
Chose them as they are in the same country as me. Got all the other connectors and braided hose from them too.
