Default Fast fuel rail installation

Im putting a set of Fast fuel rails on a fast intake. Do I have to do any thing in regards to the fuel pressure regulator? Or just run fuel line to rear of rail, cross over on the front and be done with it? My car is a 2002 ZO6. It looks like there is a Fuel pressure regulator on the stock fuel cross over line.
Thanx in advance

On a 2002 your regulator is in the fuel filter, what your looking at is a pulse damper on your stock fuel rail.

plug them in and go....I just did mine on my 2003 Z an they worked great. Word to the wise...carefully check for leaks prior to firing the car up. Also, run the car for a while with the hood OPEN and carefully watching everything....I had pinched one of the O-rings but didnt develop a leak until I had been running the car for about 5 minutes...I had a stream of misting fuel about 3 feet in the air....VERY DANGEROUS as a mist of fuel is by far the most likely to ignite. Good luck....and double, triple check everything!
