Default Aeromotive/Nasty Performance/FAST fuel rails...Need Pics!!!

Just like the title says, was hoping some of you guys had pics of your Aeromotive, Nasty Performance or FAST fuel rail setups that you could post up. Also any pros/cons would be great.

I purchased a "budget" fuel rail kit and after a number of issues, pulled it off the car and put the stock setup back on for time being.

First time around the rail came loose and proceeded to spray fuel everywhere. Apparently the adjustable mounting brackets allowed the injectors to pop out (even though I tightened them down securely). Second time around the fittings started leaking after I installed them per the instructions (teflon paste and correct tightening).

So....now I'm considering something different. Maybe something a bit more pricey and higher quality.

Currently running a FAST 90 setup with Racetronix 32# injectors.

Any pics/advice you guys could share would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

small pics but thats all they have on their site

Nasty





Fast


Aeromotive



Kinsler



I like the kinsler the best and I also like the nasty performance rails.
I suppose they are all about the same until you get over 2000 hp
Ive never seen anyone post up any real differences

Here's pics of my setup before it makes it on the car. I changed the FAST logo from red to black since the pics. I think it looks much better that way. I just went with fast rails and I am doing all of my own plumbing so I can use all black fitting and lines. The rail stanchions are usually natural aluminum finish but I had them anodized black too.

I like the Kinsler setup too, but to me it looks nearly identicle to the fast rails without the anodizing, and the prices I found were quite a bit more expensive.

^^^^^^ What pump setup did you use? Why the regulator in the engine bay? Did you get rid of the stock in-tank one?

We use the FAST rails due to them including quality o ring fittings, billet hold downs, and a nice finish.

Big thanks to everyone for the pics. All kits look like good quality stuff.

My main problem came from the adjustable brackets for mounting the rails. The holes for the rail bolts on the brackets were slotted, thereby allowing the rails to move if you don't have them tight enough.

From what I can see, all of these kits appear to not have "adjustable" mounting brackets - which is exactly what I need.

One question I do have is what do you guys use to seal up the threads? I've used Teflon paste (instructions said to not use tape) and still had leaks.

How tight are you guys tightening these fittings?

Also, with the FAST kit, since it has o-rings, do you even need a thread sealant?

Again, appreciate the pics. Any more help/pics you could provide would be really appreciated.

Thanks!

I used lubriplate to lube the o-rings, silicone grease or a little oil will work too. No need for sealer. Just tighten till snug no need to get crazy with em, as long as they are fully seated.

The reason you lube the O-ring is to help prevent cutting it and causing a leak.

^^^^^^ What he said!

The fittings on the FAST and most others use an AN- fitting with an o-ring. Are you sure what the fittings you have are? Are they AN- fittings or pipe thread?

LoL, Another one that look like the FAST, or fast looks like them. Even the mounting brackets look the same. I wonder who is making these for these guys?
