Corvette fuel rails? Can I use them?
Hey everybody. You know when you sell a car and instantly wish you hadn't? Well that's me. I sold my 87 IROC convertible and I know Im going to regret it for the rest of my life. I will get another great 3rd gen one day. But for now I'm back to wrenching on my 67 convertible. Going to power it with an 88 IROC 5.7 and I'm wondering if anybody knows if there are any reasons I cannot use corvette fuel rails. I want to do this because the supply and return lines on corvette enter the rails from the back and I have plenty of room to do it that way. thanks. (I realized after I posted this that I spelled FUEL incorrectly in the title but cant fix it now)

The only difference between F-body and Y-body TPI fuel rails is just where the supply and return connections are. If they fit on your car, then you shouldn't have any problem running them.

^ what transaero said.
If I recall, I think they come from the passenger side FRONT of the motor?
I just looked on ebay and the corvette fuel rails appear to have the regulator in the back, and the fuel lines come in from the opposite side.
