making fuel rails.

[Ponyfreak]

I think I will make my own fuel rails. It will be cheaper than buying some, and it will only take an hour to do. You can buy stock, you jsut have to countersink the holes in the proper place and make some tabs to hold it down. Easy stuff.

If it can be done Joe, you're the man to do it. If you're handy at machine tools, it should be relatively easy. Some heavy wall tubing, drill four holes at the correct spacing, counterbore and flare for the O-ring fits, drill & tap the ends for NPT. Test fit, fab some brackets, spot weld, remove and finish weld, polish the end product. add some AN fittings and presto, mundo, custom fuel rail!

I ordered a 1/2 reamer and a repalcement 1/2 transfer punch that my brother falttened out using it as a center punch and beating the hell out of it. The fuel rail blanks are headed my way as well.
