Default Anyone have a picture of their fuel rail they can show me?

I've done my ZC swap into my DX. However the fuel hose doesn't bolt up to the thing on the ZC fuel rail, its not the same. My DX one had a connection like this...



But my ZC has like a bolt with the hole in the center. Am I missing a piece of my ZC engine or something?

That is not a fuel rail. Thats a fuel pressure gauge. You can mount that gauge on your fuel filter.

I'm aware of that, I'm not talking about the regulator, I'm talking about the fitting. The like bolt with a hole on one side. Thats how my old engine was, my new one is like a bolt with a hole down the center. I will go take pictures and show you guys...

See they aren't the same like everyone says the should be. Do I need an Integra hose or something?

Thats weird man. Maybe you are missing a peice, do you have the "top" that screws onto the "nipple" coming off the fuel rail? I forgot how mine is, but I'll check on my way out the door in a sec and I'll post it when I get back from work if no one has helped u yet.

So if I go to a junkyard will most any MPFI Honda one work? Also I don't really see how the O shaped ring fits onto the bolt with the hole in the center. How the hell does gas get inside it?

I had the same problem with my b16, I drilled a new hole in my fuel rail and used my dx lines. It worked great and I never had a problem using my old dx fuel lines. Just curious though, would using my old dx lines cause any problems ? I have been driving the engine with my old lines and my fuel and air mixture seems good.

The bolt is too fat for the ring on mine so even if I drilled it it wouldn't fit on.

Do you think these "bolts" can be removed like studs? I think I may try it.

For some reason I thought you were talking about the nut.
