reted's parallel fuel rail diagram?

http://fc3s-pro.com/TECH/MODS/FUEL/fpr.htm
Does anyone have this page cached? I am about to buy all of the hose/fittings to do this and want to make sure I am going about it the right way. If not, I'll post my ideas on what hose/fittings to use tonight. BTW I have already checked the Way Back Machine at archive.org.

Are you interested in buying any of those fittings/regulators? Brand new? Heavy, heavy discount. I have most of those parts and just decided not to do it myself.

So this helps maintain pressure in the fuel system? what other benefits are there to doing this?

having a rising rate fuel pressur regulator that you can set the static pressure on. When you start upgrading turbos, you need to do this to get the most consistant fuel flow from your injectors.

You gain a far superior fuel pressure regulator. And running the rails in parallel means there should be no drop in the primary fuel rail pressure when the secondary injectors turn on.

Does anybody know how much line you need to do this, if you are planning on replacing it all? Also in reading some of this I got very confused, and was hoping someone could set me straight. With this setup you can elliminate the PD without risking harm to the engine correct? Assuming that you have either a rewired fuel pump or an aftermarket one correct. Please let me know where I am wrong and right on all this thank you.

summit (can) get these but it took me 3 trys cause they kept sending me the wrong parts even though i told them exactly what i wanted.

amount of hose? i got a 10ft chunk and it was more than enough. pulsation dampener? it will be gone if you do this setup. and fuel pump most people that spend the money to do this setup buy a high flow fuel pump.

Remove the stock banjo bolts. The listed adapters fit in their place, and allow the use of AN lines.

That is a series 5 rail. You would need to convert to a series 4 rail to do the set up ted is talking about.
