Speed Inc fuel rails
The kit they sell to install them, does it come with a schraeder^sp valve ? and what about the cross over on the stock fuel line that round thingy.. what is that a pressure regulator? does the kit account for that as well?

Anyone used em?

So not accounting for it will do what? I ask him a couple times and get no answer
"There would be no Schrader valve with our rails, but pressure can be relieved by loosening any of the AN lines." No **** really? I needed an email to tell me that?
Ok now my confidence in their system, is shaken. I know more about the system than they do. For 268 bucks I want someone who knows their stuff, not just pretends to. Going to talk to MrNasty and see what he has to offer. Speedinc's setup is nice looking but thats about it. I could duplicate Speedincs system with help from Ace and AER rails cheeeper. I'm somehat pissed and disappointed obviously.

the "pulsator" is a dampner used to even out fuel pressure fluctuations, there is no shrader valve so a permanent fuel rail pressure guage is a must if you want to know fuel pressure. The main fuel line connection is a radiator clamp, which i was skeptical about but have had no problems with

FWIW, with the Nasty Perf. setup, the main supply line connects to the factory hard line with an Aeroquip anodized aluminum compression fitting. You can see some pics of my Nasty rails in this thread:

Thanks! 
I think that Nasty does include a fuel pressure gauge with their kit, but I didn't like how theirs looked. I bought my own silver faced Autometer gauge and anodized elbow fitting. If you're interested, the Autometer part # is 2180.

Ok, I'm getting ready to install my rails from Speed Inc tonight, but it sounds like even though I bought their install kit, I'm not going to have everything I need? what fuel pressure should it be running at with those rails? I mean, even if I had a gauge there, I wouldn't know if it was good or bad pressure LOL
so is the pulsator and schrader valve not really necessary?
and since my car isn't that hard core at all (just basic heads and cam, rails were for appearance) I probably don't even need to be concerned with the pressure, although it looks cool.
better do some more reading.
