Fuel Rails on the L76 Intake
Fuel Rails on the L76 Intake I know that the LS2 Rails are the ones that you have to use for this Intake, but I think that you have to use the regular LS1/LS6 Injectors..
This is the L76, with LS2 Rails, and LS2 Injectors. Notice how much higher it sits, everything is in it's proper place. It needs about a 1/2" spacer. That and it's a little off on the Passenger side, anyone have this happen..

I think the L76 intake uses the newer LS2/LS7 style injectors, hence the LS2 rails.
I have a set of 42# C5R injectors I'd like to use, what rails, etc., do I need to make this work with an L76 intake?

The fuel injectors that are supplied with the L76 intake kit are LS7. If you're using LS7 injectors, LS2 fuel rails, and the L76 intake, there should be no reason for you to have to space them.
I am using an LS1 rail and injectors on my L76. You just have to make some offset standoffs. We had a block made with two holes 10 mm apart. One hole was clearanced and countersunk to attach to the manifold (with a round headed internal hex cap screw). the other was threaded to bolt the rail to. Works like a champ and doesn't sit up a mile either. I will see if I can get some pics.
If anyone wants a good deal on my LS2 rail, let me know. It was just sticking up far too much for comfort.

Does the LS2 rail (with LS1 inj.) sit high without spacers?

Seriously, though, somebody buy my LS2 rail. It works fine with shorty injectors.

Does anyone know if there is an aftermarket fuel rail that will sork with the L76 intake and the supplied injectors? I posted and PMed Chad at Livernois to see if their stuff would work but he hever responded.

Just because they look nicer. The rails as supplied on the L76 work fine and just needed a slight tweak to clear the Katech coil relocation brackets.

I didn't mean to sound like I was slamming him...I wasn't trying to do that.

Is it a PITA to convert to a returnless system?
Thanks.
