Heh heh. Uh, no. But you know; while I was busy polishing the intake plenum thought I'd look into the fuel rail. LOL. Kidding. The day I ever polish an intake plenum.....

No, today I dry mounted the early style "diesel" engine carrier arms and started determining position and design of engine bracket to accommodate Audi 5000 mounts and WBX engine position.

The fuel rail was just one of those things that popped into my head while determining engine height; the intake is the high point. A "door was opened".

"Scope creep" ;^)
