Fuel rail question...
Fuel rail question... Any of the sponsors or any other shops make a rail that bolts up to the ls1/ls6 style intakes like the nasty/speed inc rails that instead of the 3/8" npt, they are -8 fittings?
i have a set of aftermarket rails that are for an aftermarket intake, and all the fittings i have are -8 stuff. just don't want to spend all that dough again on the fittings/hose/etc...
otherwise i have to figure out a way to mate up these rails to work on a stock intake and I don't trust stuff like that.

Correct me if I am wrong, but wouldnt you just need a 3/8 pipe to -8 fitting? This would leave you with a -8 male fitting on the end of the nasty fuel rail. I have the nasty rails on my car and have a 3/8 pipe to -6 fitting on it. Im sure they make a fitting with the -8 end.
Just my thoughts...

yeah, i know. but that means i'd need 3 of the 3/8 to -8 fittings and then a 3/8" plug fitting. just trying to avoid the $15/piece for the fittings
each part of the rail fits an -8 to -8 male, then the hose has it's fitting that is a -8 that gets screwed on the male end that is in the fuel rail

sorry guys.
but yes, if you go through summit, it lists out the -8 size fitting that would get screwed into the rail. it's not the 3/8 npt size that speed inc normally carries

like that, but with the ability to have that same Speed Inc. style hold down.

both
my current rails, the fittings that go into them are -8 o-ring to -8
since i need rails either way, i don't feel like buying rails that are the 3/8npt and having to get a 3/8npt to -8 female connector
i like things uniform and getting the correct parts. not buying different adaptors just to make something work. i wouldn't have to by JUST ONE adaptor.
I'd need a 3/8npt plug for the passenger side front of the rail (i'd have the -8 laying around then)
then i'd need (3) 3/8" npt to -8 female connectors so that I could adapt my current AN fittings to the smaller rails

Verdad Gallardo well, looks like i'm just being difficult.
i'm just trying to use what i have available without having to discard of the other AN fittings I just got. So those are 3/8npt to -8 fittings in those rails, correct? looks like no response from nasty, and i know speed inc. doesn't, so looks like this is my only answer
