No, they require hacking mainly due to the fuel line location.

Yeah no many mods needed to make em fit right. Mainly the fuel line. I believe the fuel line entry for the fuel rail is similar as the fcar. also notching the pass side for the fresh air vent hose. Heres the latest set I did for my car. I just bolted em on for pics the other day. I need to get the thing back together and start driving it




They took me some time to finish, because with an electrical charge they do something

Yeah the standard red EL wire. Very involved project, getting the epoxy to hold the wire down. I went with 2.3mm (slightly bigger than the wording) so it can withstand the engine heat better.

what if you replaced those lines with longer ones and rerouted them around the covers? would you need to cut em up still?

you'd need the vette style regulator/fuel rail assembly that has the lines coming in from the opposite direction.
