for one,i have my fuel going into the rail and the regulator is connected to the return line. is this right? i read elsewhere it was supposed to be the other way around, but this seems to be working fine.

the other is where can i find replacement gaskets like the one that came with the stealth ram?

 

Fuel should be going into the regulator, easy or hard to change depending on which way u mounted it, and the return line should be connected to the rail.

 

ive read differently

 

Mine is supply line on the regulator and return on the rail.

As for the gaskets, they are 1205 felpro and are available at any auto parts store. The wimpy plenum gaskets are "special order" only from summitracing.com. I have had mine on order for 3 weeks and ordered 3 sets just to save myself the headache next time the gasket fails. As a temporary solution, I used felpro gasket paper from the local auto parts store and cut out a replacement gasket.

 

The INLET fuel line goes to the rail and the fuel RETURN line goes on the outlet of the regulator!

There should be instructions in all the rail kits shipping.

 

What Doug said. That is how the stock TPI fuel rails are set up as well.

Doug: There's been several posts of people asking how to assemble the fuel rail kit because of a lack of instructions. I know mine didn't come with any (though I feel I didn't need any ). Perhaps you could find out why that is?

 

Same here, my rails did not have any instructions. However, I figured it out by reading all of the posts on here and looking at some pictures of others' installations. The return line is supposed to be on the regulator, as Doug said.

 

Regulator is almost always on the return side......it is easy to regulate return flow than pressure.

Most of the first rails didn't. Ones shipping now should have instructions due to the apparent need.

 

Yep, mine obviously didnt come with instructions. I guess I'll swap my lines!

 

yeah i was talkin about the puny plenum gaskets. mine didnt come with any intake gaskets. i had to get fel pros from the local parts store. how much are those special order gaskets?

i figured i had the fuel right. you cant regulate pressure if your inlet is being restricted. you have to keep it flowing a certian rate to get more pressure. you do that by limiting the amount of fuel leaving.

 

Mine seems to work fine the way it is, and it's making nice numbers. Nontheless, a brain fart on my part.

The gasets were on the order of $5 a pair. Like I said, I special ordered 3 sets so I dont have to wait months again the next time I need one.

 

5 dollars for those thin pieces of paper? gosh. you dont have a part number do you? or do you just call em up and tell em what it is you want?

 

Actually it was a pain in the butt and they had to call Holley Tech. I'll get you those part numbers. Yep, it's sort of a rip off.

 

They're sold under the Weiand brand, since
they first made the tunnelram.
