fuel feed line for nitrous on TBI

Can anyone who has done nitrous on their TBI motor tell me what the best way is to tap into the fuel lines for the fuel solenoid
feed line? I guess the TPI system has a schrader valve, but I don't think I have one so do I gotta cut steel fuel lines and tap into them or cut the flexible hoses that come off the steel lines? What is best set up for this? thanks......................bob

Hey 614Streets, Is that a blown TBI 2.8 in that pic? Is that in a f-body? It looks badass.

Hey, the more I look at it, the more it looks like an S10. Is it fast?

Q:Is that a blown TBI 2.8 in that pic?
A:Yes

Q:Is that in a f-body?
A: S10

Q:Is it fast?
A: Was fairly responsive , beat a few mustangs

That picture is actually a year old. I killed the ring lands and rings back in november after a pulley swap. The engine was stock internally and had been injesting nitrous for years before the blower was added. Nitrous took its toll from years of use and the huff finished off the cast slugs.

I am sharing pictures of the new motor with the v6 members in their section if your inclined to see it. The new motor should fair a bit better than the stocker did.
