Time to refuel for more boost?
#67
Hey, I was doing some reading up on the 42lb to 60lb injector installs and noticed something. The 496 has a completely different fuel rail than the small blocks. I am going to post up a pic of my fuel rail that i took back when i had to change it out due to a leaking schrader fitting. Take a look at this and see if it looks like it would present an issue with my swap. I plan on doing the swap either after work one day this week or next weekend. I have all the parts now and its just a matter of getting the time to do it. I realize im probably just going to have to dig into it and see what happens, but i thought i would post a pic incase anyone notices anything obvious. The connecting rail does not come off, but it does swivel......looks a little bigger in diameter than the small blocks and a little tougher to have to bend if i need too.

Humm... I don't think you will have a problem,as long as there is room for it to come up 5/8 of an inch. Guess you will just have to see
Oh and i think you should send me a set of those adapters to "help" you R/D them After all, I was the only one to contribute to you intercooler fund

I am worried about my intercooler that sits on top of my intake. I think the rail might hit that when i bend it up a little. I will have to just wait and see what happens.
I sent you a PM.

Nah....I think I'm good to go with the height of the rail. Here is a blast from the past when i had the DMAX intercooler on there. You can see the intake tube in the back along the firewall with the 90* in it where the whipple intercooler sits now. Looks like i have a few inches there at least.....so i should be good.
