97 Fuel Rail Conversion...
I recieved all of my parts today from Gene @ Fred Beans. Here's what I got:
1) 97 Rail
2) 97 Return braided hose
3) Fuel Pressure Reg
4) Fuel Filter
5) Return/feed lines.
Here's a couple of questions.
1) The FPR slips into the rail, should it have something that holds it into place or will the o-rings do the trick?
2) Should I break down the new feed/return lines and just install the return line?
3) Do I need a vacuum line on the FPR? I would assume no since I am not running boost.
4) Does the fuel filter fit into the same place as the orginal one?

Re: 97 Fuel Rail Conversion... (Phil97SVT)
1) The FPR fits into the 97-98 rail and is secured by a c-clip. I have the part number at the shop. Call me in the morning and I'll give it to you.
2) Not sure here... we just do the complete swap including all soft lines from the tank to the retro hard fuel lines.
3) I would say yes. The 97-98 regulators are vacuum modulated. I have the part number that little line too :D
4) We use the 97-98 filter... fitting everything together with the retro soft lines between the tank and hard lines.
:cheers:
