Challenger Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Anyone made one... http://www.freewebs.com/pallnet/products.htm Looking at these but I dont want to spend $110 but I might have to. Abes was selling this custom one a while back. Anyone have ideas on where I could get material, tools, etc to make something like this? From what I know, Id need a threaded opening on each end, and maybe another one on the top for a fuel pressure gauge, and then obviously 6 fittings for tubes to be ran to each injector. Would I be able to use common materials found at say a hardware store? Also would aluminum be the best given that it doesnt rust, corrode, as badly? Any ideas, comments and suggestions are welcome!

jeffer949 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 i made mine was actually pretty easy. Ill get you a picture later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 fast z Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Needs, to be tapped 1/4" NPT, which you will NOT find at a traditional harware store. Needs to be tapped perpendicular to the rail itself, as well as drilled perp. also. You need to also, know how far to tap the tap, as it is a taper seal, on the threads. Yes all. is going to be the easiest to work with, as well as fairly cheap. Look on ebay for stock, or just a metal store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted June 25, 2008 Author Share Posted June 25, 2008 Thanks, what do you reccomend for stock? Circlular tubing or square? About what wall thickness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffer949 Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Mine is made out of square. It has pieces of aluminum. welded on the ends and taped. 3/8 npt i believe though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six_Shooter Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 You can order fuel rail stock through your local speed shop, Accel supplies it. I'm making my own now, to convert to O-ring injectors on an L28 intake. I had a friend of mine make me a special 3 flute drill bit, that has the proper dimentions for the O-ring injectors. Hopefully it will be done soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Challenger Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 Thanks vspec, those look nice, maybe I can find some of that locally... Id like to look into getting some aluminum tube like jeffer949 (if I cant find it locally), anyone have pictures to show what it would look like?
