Fuel vaporising in fuel rails?.......
Thoughtyou guys might beable to shed some light on the car in the below link. Its an Ultima GTR with a LS7 unit used for racing in the UK. The team recently took part in a 24hour event and had some pajour problems with a missifr ethat was believed to be down to the fuel vaporising in the rails. it effected alot of LS7 powered cars. Just wondering if any of you have had / heard of similar problems?

That is a lot of exhaust piping near the heads.
You could get a quality heat coating (like Swain Tech) and also install some heatshields with the fancy reflective tape btw the headers and the fuel rail.
You could also use a small cooler somewhere in the fuel system (maybe after the swirl pot, pre-fuel rail).
Check pics of the Ultralite SL-C and Daytona Prototypes but not sure if any of the that will carry over.
