I think that tiny cross-over tube is causing imbalance and I have yet to find aftermarket fuel rails so I built the following on a spare set. Welded AN's to the firewall end and tapped next to the furthest two injectors because the ends are inaccessible on our intake configuration. Used Summit spring lock adapters to connect to the stock supply and return lines. Next on the supply is a Y-block. Takes a lot of fittings for such a simple job and this the best/only spot I could find for the pressure regulator. It's held with the throttle body cover bolts. Did a Playdough clearance check to the hood and there is room for the gauge but it needs to be vertical or the glycerine bleeds out. Mind you, the engine is dropped so if you go there ....

Tinkering because there's lots to be made "right". "All Vettes are RED" is an interesting read, especially how they cut corners to build our cars (not to mention the C5). Up to us to do the rest. People keep asking when it will be done, I keep adding to the list ....
