hey guys,
if anyone with aftermarket fuel rails can help me with some pics here would be good.
just trying to figure out what hose and fittings im going to need to hook up the aftermarket fuel rail to the stock fuel line as they dont exactly match up nicely (LS1 engine).

I was just talking to where you got those rails from and he can supply everything you need to completely change over the stock rails for $65.
Also, your kit is -8AN
VZ Thunder - 424RWKW Turbocharged V8 - Parts by AKO Performance
one_and_only - is that kit on their website? i cant find it.
sirnem. - your not quite getting what i mean, ill take a couple pics tonight to explain better
Hopefully I'm not too late, If you wish to use braided hose there are a few fittings you need. Because there is fuel running through you must use Teflon hose so petrol smell doesn't permeate through the lines.
I am familiar with Speedflow gear, with there stuff you will require:
1 x 715-06-06 (GM adaptor to -6 which goes on the stock fuel line on the back of the firewall)
1 x 201-06 for straight -6 to hose or
202-06 for 45degree -6 to hose or
203-06 for 90degree -6 to hose
Hose 200-06 x length of hose required.
1 x 201-06 for straight -6 to hose or
202-06 for 45degree -6 to hose or
203-06 for 90degree -6 to hose
and an adaptor of sorts. If your fuel rails have -6 fittings on them you will not require this, if it has just a female thread you will need to determine the thread and get an adaptor which goes from that thread to -6 to connect the above fitting.
Theres the hose i made for mine, i used the factory fuel rails so yours will be slightly different. The gauge port adaptor is 140-06.
Hope that helps, If you need further information pm me![]()
found a website that already sells those fittings in a kit -8AN which is what i needed. thanks anyway, left you some positive rep.
