FD fuel rails on an FC

Will REW style fuel rails work on an S5 motor. I found a pair of SARD rails with all the fittings, block off plates and everything else for $200. Brand new too. A buddy of mine got them about a year ago, but ended up having a custom setup built by Moran.
Just wanna know about fitment differences on FC and FD motors. If the will fit, then Im golden.

I am not sure how the secondary fuel rail mounts, you may need to modify it. The SARD rails are top feed I suppose? Stock the REW is side feed and those won't work at all.

Those are aftermarket top feed rails. Fitment wise, the main concern is whether the bolt holes are spaced appropriately, especially on the secondary rail. Also, these are most likely for Bosch-style injectors which have a larger o-ring and diameter than the factory Denso top feed injectors. That presents its own set of issues, because if you don't install them right there will be a vacuum leak. What injectors were you planning on running? What is your setup? Do you really need aftermarket rails?

Those blockoff plates are going to be useless for you. If you've ever looked under the UIM of an FD you would see that they are FD-specific.
