    good to know

    Good to know the tpi rails would work...I spotted a few pcs of aluminum at work/scrap pile and was thinking bore it, thread the ends and mill pockets for injector seals lol.

    I assume with the different heads/valve placement the LS would be a poor candidate for a donor rail.....Guess that leaves the TPI as the only oem that will work..

    When this finally pans out, I am coming up with a list of OEM donor parts that work. I want to make this easier for others.....

    The LT1 and marine engines could be pirated of fuel rails.

    Your a machinist so maybe an LT1 intake would be a cheap option? It needs a hole for distributor.

    I have an LT1 intake with rails that already has the distributor hole in it. This was for someone elses project that they backed out on. I will sell it CHEAP. PM me if you are interested.
