Default fuel rails

i am gonna have -10 an feed fuel lines on my upcoming project and was wondering if there was a fuel rail made for the b16 head that has this fitting with a -6 an return fitting. or is this going to have to be custom made? thanks for any help in advance.

It took me five minutes to drill and tap my stock fuel rail.

I'm running -6AN feed and return to my AEM rail. I think you could stick bigger fittings on there...dunno about -10AN though...that's huge for feed. How much HP are you planning on making?

Haha, yeah, contact Stan @ Fast-Turbo [Flamenco-T] and ask him...he's the guy to see for fuel lines/fittings and that sort of stuff. If i'm not mistaken, the AEM rails only have an ID of 1/2" [-8AN] so you're going to need to find a rail with at least a 5/8" ID to have the need to run a -10AN feed.

I thought that -#AN meant #/16" ID....

AN size is basically the OD of a hard aluminum line.

So an 8 AN has an OD of 1/2" in an aluminum hard line, and an ID of 7/16.

Are you going to run braided stainless all the way from the tank? I can save you a ton of money if you run an aluminum hard line from the tank to the firewall.

I think the str rail has one of if not the largest bore available in a b-series rail, plus they are one of the most affordable. AN adapter fittings make using almost any size hose simple. Same goes for the return fitting out of the fpr.
