modifying a injector rail for 900hp
the rails look to be pritty big already- Im doing a 900hp e85 turbo build and was wondering if I could just swap the stock lines on the back with some -8 fittings?

[QUOTE=RamAir95TA;14415825]I have a hard time believing a stock fuel rail designed for 275HP can support 900HP, ESPECIALLY with E85.
Mine, stock rails with -10 Feed & -8 Return, 722 RWHP so whats that at the crank, close to 800? Not quite 900 but I had no fuel delivery problems..

heres what i ended up doing- Cut the cross over in half and silver soldered -6 fittings on. Going to loop them back toward the firewall to a aeromotive regulator. Hopefully i can find some nice clamps to hold the lines to the rails. I still need to weld the -8 bungs on the end of the stock rails

There is an Impala that based on the 1/4 mile performance I am sure of is solidly over 900rwhp. Has the stock aluminum rails plumbed separate AN.
Thing is a pig, has the AC and all yet and last I heard he said he was approaching 160mph in the quarter. Launches soft though.
I just mention it because it is a case where I know a car is making at least as much power as the OP is aiming for, yes it is pump gas not E85 but I believe it is currently WAY over the 900hp mark just having a hard time putting it down.

I would think even with using E85 a properly modified stock fuel rail should support upto 1200rwhp.
Here is a picture of my setup. I have a -8 from my regulator to a y block, then -6 to bung welded to the back of each fuel rail. I left the crossover tube installed, to make sure pressure to each rail stays equal.
