That is really pretty .............. We're going to have to make this a Friday subject. I'd be interested to see it deliver more fuel to anything but the fuel pressure regulator that is simply going to bypass it to the tank. I've got an 83 Westy with the type IV Air Cooled engine. I installed a full circle fuel rail using a 85 up dual input Waser Boxer fuel pressure regulator. It helped to reduce lean burn on #3 cylinder as indicated by the spark plug burn color. Other than that its just more plumbing. The other thing I noticed is that he's got the injector to rail hoses bent .......... No, No bends that tight please, it causes premature hose failure. If this is an auction by a list member I must say; Shame on you for wasting our time.
