Re: Simple HSR question I need an answer
Ummm ok, do you have vortec heads? Easy way to tell is if you have 8 bolts (vortec) holding down the intake manifold or 12 bolts (regular sbc).

Re: Simple HSR question I need an answer
okay cool so how do I test the fuel pressure on this set up I mean the HSR fuel rail has no schrader valve to attach to it has an adjustable pressure regulator but I dunno were to test
Re: Simple HSR question I need an answer
HSR intake #7540
Holley fuel rail system #534-193
Holley 58mm throttle body
If you have '87 or newer iron heads you'll most likely need the Holley supercharger adapter kit #90748. This is because the intake is design for the '87 and earlier heads.
The fuel rails that I purchased has a schrader valve on the front.
Also, the HSR will did not exactly fit under the hood. It rubs against the dimple in the hood where the insulation clip attatches. This occurs at the plate on the throttle body.
Other than that I'm happy with the install.
LMK if you have any questions.

Re: Simple HSR question I need an answer
I have the one with the adjustable FBR that is why I am tring so hard to find a way to test the fuel pressure but it doesn't have the spot for the schrader valve
