Because you have to replace the LS1 Radiator support with the LT1 setup.

Yep, extreme is corerct. The hood closes right down on the filter. Works pretty good and IMO, better then the stock style set up.

One of these two types of fittings would go into the end of the fuel rail.

O-Ring

Pipe Thread or NPT, this sample is a reducer

That be the return line coming from the regulator...

I originally spliced it into the "T" back where the fuel filter is but I could not regulate at all.. So, I called Aeromotive and talk with Jared. I described my set up and issues, he told to me pop the line off and just drain into a bucket instead of the tank.. Did that, started the car and I could adjust my fuel pressure no problem.. So, I had to run the -6 line all the way into the tank for the return as where I had it spliced into the factory line, it was choking it up.

So that braided line you see is the return coming from the motor. I capped off the fatory return line.
