Can anyone give me some input please.

I'm going to upgrade the fuel rails on my car as a result of the leaky Bugeye ones I currently have so thought I'd go full out and get the Billet style ones with joiners and braided lines.

I've looked on a few sites and as much as I'd love to get the ones from RCM I just cannot justify the price they are charging.

Would you suggest changing the manifold gaskets too?

Does anywhere do the full thing including gaskets,rails,lines and joiners etc?


How hard is the task ahead? Any ideas?

Cheers
Steve

Carl Davey's stuff looks good quality, and there's a fair few people on here who use his parts.

Try the above website, they are Australian the kit isvery good I fitted one of their fuel distribution kits which I got from dsautomotives in Aylesbury. The kit I got is not shown on the APS website as it is the 03 number kit but if you speak to Dave at dsa I am sure he will help you out.

Hope this helps Steve

 

Cheers for the input guys.

Have sent Carl Davey an email. It's the braided hoses I need to get hold of hence a question sent.

Also would I'll need the Manifold Insulation Spacers (10mm) and the OEM gaskets or will I get away with just the spacers?

I believe you'll need 2 pairs of inlet manifold gaskets to use with the spacers.

Not sure if Carl supplies them, try Alyn at AS Performance as he's normally very keenly priced.

 

I get all my braided hose and fittings from HEL: Fuel System : HEL Brake Lines - Stainless Steel Performance Car Brake Line And Brake Hose Kits Manufactured to the highest possible industry standards exclusively by Hose Solutions, the HEL Performance car brake line kits are new to the market, Hel C

 

I have used them and found them VERY helpful

Re the inlet spacers,...

API DAve does ones with O-rings embedded either side so you don't need the 2 sets of gaskets either side. When you add up the price of the two sets of gaskets and the 'normal' spacers, then it's not far off API's more elegant solution...

 

Plus I think API's come in 2 different height options too (mind, so does Carl's I think...)

 

Steve, I take it you already are - or will go - parallel too?

 

the gaskets are 9 quid a pair

 

Carl's MY99-07 insulating spacers (10mm) are £75... Plus 2x pairs of gaskets @£18 = £93.

I think API's O-ringed spacers are £95... but... do NOT require the 2x pairs of gaskets (because of those embedded O-rings).

So there's a couple of similar priced solutions for Steve to ponder....
