Garfinkle Fuel rail Adapters
For those of you who have not seen these adapters. I got a chance to take pictures today when i was installing the adapter on my secondary fuel rail. Reason for doing this (most of you know) is because the stock fuel pulsation damper is known to leak and cause engine fire. I didn't want just a replacement damper i wanted to upgrade the stock lines and install a Fuel Pressure Regulator.
David Garfinkle sells a kit that you can run braided hoses and fuel fittings.
Picture of the fittings. Fuel Pressure regulator does not come with the kit.
Here you can see the stock fuel pulsation damper.
Damper and Garfinkely adapter.
The Garfinkle adapters come with 3 rubber Orings for proper sealing. In the bottom picture you can see that the stock FPD only has one
The adapters come with their own screws. These new screws replaces the old stock philips head screws. At the end of the adapter is the fuel fitting to give you a better visual of how it will look like.
I hope you guys can understand my bad writing.

Awesome kit, how much did it set you back? I'm going to be replacing my vacuum lines soon and wanted to replace my FPD and send my injectors out to be cleaned while I had the UIM and rats nest out. I've seen this on the other forum and I only hear the greatest things about Garfinkles products.

I was going to get these but he said they were a month out back when I needed them. I just got the SARD adapter for the secondary rail and tapped the primary with a 1/4 NPT and a 45* 1/4 = -10AN adapter. Worked well for me.

The fuel rail adapters alone are $50 each. The fittings and fuel line may very depending of how many fuel fittings you will need and how many feet of fuel line depending on your FPR location.
If you want to retain your stock rigid fuel lines coming from the chassis there is fittings that you can braze on the rigid fuel line so that you can adapt a fuel braided hose.In the picture below you can see the straight fuel fitting with the pipe like adapter nipple.

you can also use an econo fitting for the stock hardlines (looks like an AN fitting but has a fuel hose clamp, or just use a hose clamp without the bling like I did).

Not to rain on your parade, but that isn't the oem FPD. The Fuel Pulsation Dampener (which is a fire hazard) is located on the primary fuel rail, which sits right on top of the engine.
You replaced the oem fuel pressure regulator on the secondary rail, which are not prone to leaking in my experience.

Gotta have this, I found a pool of what it looks like fuel by my primaries. Yet another great product by Garfinkle.
Question: Can someone send me a link of what fittings I would need to work with the stock rigid hardlines that end at the engine bay. I know there is a thread in here showing the fittings but can't remember what I found it under. I just want to replace the rubber lines to that point.
