Default Fuel Rail connections

If I'm running the Corvette Filter/Reg and no return line from the rails, do I block off the back of the rails and run a feed into the front of each rail via a Y block?

You can do it a few ways..

1) yes using a Y block or a Tee block, then block off the other ends of the rail.

2) You can go into one end of one rail, the out the other end and into the 2nd rail. (serial)

3) you can use a Tee on one rail itself and then feed the other rail from Tee (almost like the Y block), but that doesn't look like you have clearance for it..
