hey, what are you using to mate the fast fuel rails to your fuel system? Do you have a fuel return system?

I was told that even if I dont use a fuel return system I need to use something like the CJM Stage 0 return system which only serves to mate the oem system to the arftermarket fuel rails.

Thanks

I'm running a corvette fpr mounted by the tank so the return is only a foot long. I have cjm return fitting kit. And braided line to the fuel rails. There linked together and then the other side is capped. I just got my new holley intake and it came with holley fuels which look identical beside one says fast and the other is holley lol

So I got my new intake installed, couple things left.
Here is some information!
It is HOLLEY MID RISE INTAKE not a HIGH RISE, the mid rise is made for smaller CI, the High is for big CI and a lot of boost!
Does it fit under the hood? No
Im either going to make a real clean hole or first im gonna make my engine mounts a 1/2in shorter and use hood spacers in the rear.
The quality is MUCH better then the FAST 102.
I wont know the power difference until I get the car retuned at Dynosty by Hal which who previously tuned the car. And the intake is the only change so should be a good comparison. I didn't switch for HP tho, I mean whats 5hp? I swiched cause I think it looks way better! And its not plastic!
So here are some pictures.

Awesome work! That Holley intake looks really strong too

Have you posted any videos of it running yet? This has been a fun build to follow
