Default what can happen

This is how my car is set up .(99 Camaro v6 body with a 5.3 swap) i plan on getting a 97-98 fuel rail to correct it. Car runs fine with both lines going into one port instead of one going into the return line on the fuel rail.just want to know if this affects anything.

I am assuming you have a V8 fuel sender in the car.... otherwise it would not run the way you have it.

Based on that, you do not need the Vette rail as it contains a regulator, which you already have in the tank. If you did this, you would have to remove the intank regulator.

My only recommendation is to get rid of that rubber hose so you do not have to deal with any surprise fires.
