Default 97-98 Fuel Rail?

After doing some research I found out that I have a 97-98 vette fuel rail for my swap. ( inlet and outlet are on left side thru the covers) my question is can I just run a line: [Tank>in line filter>Rail] then [return from Rail> straight to tank]? I hope this makes sense.
I was just more familiar with the 99+ vette filter/ regulator, return line attached setup. Im using the TanksInc. sump set up if that helps.

Also are the rails good for about 34#-39# injectors?
Thanks.

Not my pic but this looks the same as my fuel rail..

yes, treat it like a normal return fuel system.

high pressure fuel pump to a inline filter to the fuel inlet on the rail and the return on the rail goes back to the tank.



the port on that regulator does not go to the intake though. im pretty sure if i remember the corvette had it going to the air filter duct so it never saw vacuum

i'm not sure what they are rated for flow but i would be surprised if it couldn't handle that
