Started to assemble the intake and injectors, fuel rails say 3/8 NPT. Bought 3/8 NPT to AN-8 fittings and they don't fit any ideas. They are edelbrock fuel rails
Thanks Russ

Thanks Russ

Me thinks the hole is 1/4" pipe in the fuel rail.
So 1/4" NPT to AN 8 should work.

Kool Car!

Got the rear bolted in

I notice that you do not have the spring perches welded up.
They need to be boxed in or you will have a failure and it will happen.
Not a big deal, but needs to be done. :)

Still a KOOL CAR!

Looking good, Russ.  On the fuel rails, most of the ones I've seen use a straight thread, not a pipe thread, with an O-ring seal.  A #8 AN is common.  Can you screw the AN side of your fitting into the rail?  If not, is it too big or too small?

Here is a page from the edelbrock web site
This is why I ordered 6 fittings in 3/8 NPT (2 90 deg and 4 straight fittings)

Way Kool Launch!
Now this is just some thinking, but I would consider the Shelby drop on the front to correct the wheel spazz.
And if they are not in yet a full set of some heavy duty rails under the seats.
Maybe even a hoop and door bars.
The thing is going to take off in the air.   ;D

Apparently they have lied to the internet. Interesting. :)
