Randy, great pic! That engine compartment rocks. I would like to do teh valve covers and coil-relocation for sure. I am looking into a good looking fuel rail set-up for the FFS equipped Vettes.....not sure if the FAST rails will work.
Mike, been busy getting my business off the ground and trying to figure out if I am going to move to Colorado. I am definitely looking to dump a few more peso's into the Z...need to finish my ICE, brakes, and now this TT. We gotta talk brutha....I'll drop you a line!

Mine still needs a lot of clean-up done to it (radiator shroud, clean up wiring, etc.), but here's the gist of it:
I am using the FAST rails (obviously) but have run my own braided stainless to the rails. They use #8 o-ring boss fittings so I'd imagine that these rails would work as well as any of the other aftermarket rails I've seen, all of which are either NPT or AN tapped.

I'm using a stock throttle body, but I sanded it to clean up some of the casting and then painted it.
