efi loop

[littlewave]

How do you loop the fuel rails on an Ingelse 8 stack efi on a 351 w. The distributer is in the way to loop in the front and if I loop it in the back it seems like the fule will go to the regulator rather than fill the other rail.

Thank you in advance...

The trick is to make the loop wide enough so you don't put any strain on the inner lining.

Later on, I wanted individual lines for both rails. I used a Y block in the back, and then used 180* fittings in the front.

With my system I can't loop in the front.

Why not? I was looking at the pictures on the Inglese site, and they don't seem to be much different than mine.

Input in the rear of one fuel rail, cross over/loop in the front, and the back of the other fuel rail feeds to the pressure regulator.

My distributer is right in front of the fuel rails. Your rails look like they are about 1.5 to 2 inches higher than mine. I even bought a serious 32 small dia dist. Try to get pic for you monday.

Yes, now I understand. If you're throttle bodies are sitting right down on the manifold, I can see where that's a problem. If you have a side mounted throtle cable linkage, you could also have some intereferance with the valve cover.

During initial assembly I had the same problems. My TB's sit on top of aluminum 1.5" spacers.

Well Monday I am going to have my first start up. Inglese said the way I have it plumbed it should work. We will see and I will let you know. Thanks for your time.
