How to remove the fuel rail?
Well, first you have to take the Electrical connectors off of the injectors. You'll notice a little clip holding them together. Just pull the silver clips out and the connector pops right off. For the fuel rail/regulator assembly, there's a couple few bolts on the top of it, easily seen, pull those out. It seems like there might be one that's not noticeable right off the bat but I am not completely sure on that. After all the bolts are out of the rail, it'll take a little work, but you can just pull the rail with injectors out of the intake. It'll likely be a little stubborn, and I used a long screwdriver against the intake to pry it up a little bit. After that just pull the whole ordeal over to the side so you have room to work. There may be a couple brackets holding the fuel lines to the intake or otherwise up there, I can't remember I was in a hurry when I did it. Then you just need to take all the bolts out of the upper intake there and pull it off, and the same for the lower. You'll need to of course disconnect all the other electrical conections and such, but there's the general idea of it anyhow. I took the intake off the 3.4 that was in the Camaro I bought a while back to give room to pull it from the engine bay with engine mounts and tranny still attached. So i wasn't really paying a heap of attention to the process I took to get the intake off, and I am not using the engine so it wasn't really a concern. Hope this helps a bit tho. Good luck with it, not that hard, shouldn't take more than an hour, with everything going wrong and not wanting to come out. It took me about 20 minutes or so, franitcally pulling bolts and such trying to get the engine out of the bay
