Fuel Rails
Hi All,
The LS1 normally runs a single fuel line from the tank to the motor. The pressure regulator is in the tank and there is no return feed from the motor.
I want to run an extrnal swirl pot and an extra fuel pump. I also want to run an extrnal adjustable fuel pressure reg and generally beef up the whole fuel system. Part of this was to run a full retrn fuel system like conventional EFI systems.
So here's a pic of my home made fuel fails. You can buy the aluminium fuel rail extrusion by the meter. I've machined it to suit the injectors on th LS1 and threaded the ends for the speedflow AN8 fittings. Phil kindly donated the elbow fittings for the cross over and I put them on a new bit of braided hose.
The regulator mounted on the firewall is a SERD unit from Japan and they are popular with the big HP Turbo combinations so should be plenty big enough to support my motor.
All I've got left to do on the rails is make up some brackets to support them off the manifold.
Cheers
