**************************************************
You might want to check out the articles section.....I think Doc posted an article. I'm in work on a conversion, and am still digging up salvage yard parts, trying to build one by doing a cut/trim/fit/braze kind of thing. I'm also working on an article from a nuts & bolts perspective on the conversion.

I can tell you to stay away from Ford fuel rails, as all the nipples are "bent" at a slight angle on the rail, and won't work in straight line setup. The same goes for 3.0 V6 Mopar rails. I am, at this time, working on a Mopar 3.3 V6 fuel rail to see if it will work.

I have not had the opportunity to examine a Ford straight 6 rail, nor GM either. I'm trying to stay away from import rails, as most of them seem to be extruded aluminum, and I don't have the equipment to weld aluminum, nor the skills.

I think that if I were to attempt to build my own fuel rail that I'd look into the flexible hose mounting system sold by MSD ignition. Go to <A HREF="http://www.msdignition.com">www.msdignition.com</A> and type "fuel rail" in the search box. The flexible system is described under #4. This still isn't cheap, about $250 for a set of eight. Maybe you could get six for a little less.
