OBX fuel rail fittings?
Hello Again.
I have a 95 Civic Ex Coupe which I'm currently turboing the D16z6. Well I bought a OBX fuel rail and the fitting for the end cap of the fuel rail which is on the left if your looking striaght at it. Sorry for being so confusing but my question is. The gay fitting for the fuel rail is too weak when tighting the cap down it strips right off after a certain torque. The guy who sold it to me said it would work fine with the stock fuel lines ETC. So has anyone else had problems? Also where could i try to find a more stronger fitting I've checked Advanced Auto, Mopar. Plus we also grinded the fitting down to see if that might work becaue it was to long. And the damn fitting didn't even throw sparks off the grinder thats how weak it is.
Any Suggestions are much appreciated.

My OBX Fuel Rail went on fine. You could probally find more fittings at your local Menards, Home Depot, Lowes (those kind of stores)....
