Default Fuel rail upgrades..options?

Im making a few upgrades and was wondering what type of fuel rails nitros guys are running. How much power or flow will a stock rail handle? Are the LS1/LS2 fuel rails compatible with LT1/LT4 intake? Do they flow any better than LT1 fuel rails? I did a quick search and all I was able to find in here was folks with rail problems.

Thanks much!!

This describes making independent fuel rails, I was going to do it, but now going to run a wet hit so I'm not so worried anymore.

What I see happening here is you are ASSuming things you should not.

I am sure there are cars out there that needed new fuel rails to support massive power. I have been around the LT1 and on several forums for a long time and I can't think of anyone specifically mentioning they found a need to upgrade. I have seen guys redo the plumbing and go larger AN too and from the tank but kept the rails. I am sure it has been done, I am sure some car out there did need it done, but it is going to be one thirsty bitch that actually needs this.
