Stealth Ram fuel rails

Im not so sure the stock fuel rails would work right on a Stealth Ram. Has anyone tried or even seen a way you can make your own fuel rails to fit this. Or even modified the stock fuel rail to fit. Ive seen custom made fuel rails and seems like a rather simple project. Ive read the post about not useing the stock rails in the Stealth ram sticky post but he just answers no to stock rails. Im wondering if you could plumb your own rails. Ive seen they sell the aluminum stock for the fuel rails undrilled. Seems like you could make fuel rails cheaper than buying the stealth ram rails and save $100.

fuel rails aren't far enough apart. then the regulator would interfere with the manifold itself. that's why they put the regulator off the end of the driver's rail.
