What kinda rails? If they require Oring fittings you need Orings. If they are pipe thread you need sealant. I have black Oring fittings if you need.

they are the edelbrock rails. They are pipe thread.

Ive heard some people just use teflon paste (what I used on my nitrous setups). Other people use teflon tape, some people use a thread sealant like a loctite style stuff. Just trying to figure out what the best might be.
Also nate, i'll be getting ahold of you before too long

edelbrock recommends teflon paste. or russell anti-seize/sealant made for fuel lines
