yellowoctupus Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I was actually asking what the injector diameter was where the o-ring seats, thinking you could find another o-ring. You have a bit of room to work with considering the Parker book recommends up to 30% squeeze in static applications. (minimum being about 0.007").

Xnke Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 I tried a few more o-rings, but wasn't able to find any that worked. The rail got broken beyond repair while I tried to sleeve the ports, I split it while pressing the sleeves in. Had one hole not drilled quite deep enough and right as the sleeve went flush the rail popped and had a split running the length of it. New rail stock is sitting next to me as I type this.

Tony D Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Tony, you read my mind. I am thinking more and more that I want a black wrinkle baked-on paint finish, which is still paint but its as tough as powdercoat. I *think* I have enough of that stuff left. They make black Krinkle Powder Coat! Though the paint seems to have held up great in my applications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xnke Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 I have about a quart of what we used to use on old data racks and equipment...that stuff is seriously tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xnke Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 Hoping to get a second fuel rail made up tomorrow evening, complete with regulator. I'm still waiting on some stainless steel line to remake the fuel feed and return lines; but we'll see when it gets here. Lots of work to do, and only a few weeks to do it in...the car should be ready to drive to Branson by the 25th of May! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xnke Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 Big updates. The intake plenum doesn't clear the hood. I will have to pie-cut the runners and turn the intake down 15* between the fuel rail stanchions and the throttle bodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
