What you want to do is tap into the fuel test port (schrader valve) at the back of the fuel rail. Feel back there on the drivers side, and there's a valve stem type cap on it. Unscrew that, and with a valve stem tool, you'll remove the stem from it. Be careful when you remove it, because the fuel system may have some pressure on it. Then use a 4an (I believe) steel braided line, and go to your fuel solenoid...... BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL when tightening the steel braided line on the test port, because it is easy to break. If you break it off, you'll need a new fuel rail.

That in a nutshell is how to tie into the fuel system on your LT1.

 

There's no way your "NOS system is just like the one" in those pictures.... that's my old setup, and its an NOS 5176 dry kit.... that's why you can't find where the fuel line is coming from.

Tap off the Schrader valve, as outlined in the post above. The only thing I would add is that you first put an NOS #17535 -4AN 90deg swivel fitting on the Schrader connection, then attach your fuel hose to that. Gets the connection pointed away from the cowl, and the "swivel" feature allows you to aim the connection anywhere you want, while still being able to tighten the fitting to the Schrader correctly, and not excessively tight.

 

yeah, the blue thing on there is the fuel plunger for a dry kit. one selenoid sends some bottle pressure to the FPR and the other selenoid sends N20 to the intake.

 

Thats why i'm so confused! i was under the assumtion that two noids automaticly ment wet kit. Sorry guys. i do have that kit (NOS 5176). now i'm even more in the dark as to how to hook it up.
so the blue thing in the middle of the noids hooks up to what?? vaccuum line??

another nubbie question... how can i measure on this system for what size shot i will be running.

Thanks a million guys!!!!

NOS has stuff on their website to hook it up i would imagine. check them out.

google it.
they also have tuning guidelines for their kits too.
