i am confused by the rails... only because we send counter-sunk stainless bolts to be used with them... but those rails dont looks like the mounting ears even have the countersink machined into them?

They are just set on there and the stock rail bolts are used.... I forgot the proper hardware at home. I bought them from Forged a few months ago. The engine is at my buddies shop I will get more pics and PM them to you next time I am there.

I was at the shop last night they are counter sunk and I put the proper bolts in now I just need to find some "o" rings for my injectors into the rails and I can bolt things down for the last time.

Wow good for you! I'm building my confidence with suspension before attempting engine work by myself haha. I've been looking for a decent 350 builder in our area and can't seem to find anyone that has alot of knowledge with the VQ. I was thinking of sending my car down to GTM next winter, but maybe I'll check this place out. Congrats on the build so far tho man!
