primary fuel rail was included with the "kit" i bought off a local forum member but forgot that i need that FPR so i ordered one.. dont have to worry about FPD or rubber lines breaking all braided lines...
but no i couldnt stay away i sold my 2000 f250 and had some money laying around realizing i had no project or toy anymore so i went on a hunt in search for one and found one about a week later lol and after some saving up and selling parts off my f250 i had no use for this is where she stands lol
and yes hopefully things do come around this time ive done everything correctly this time i havent cheaped out anywhere everything has been replaced so hopefully we shall see... she gets sent off to paint in a few weeks if the warm weather stays around if not ill have to wait till summer...
