STR Fuel Rail??

Been checking out fuel rails/regulators/gauges as my next mod to tackle.
I found the STR fuel rails online for mad cheap but have heard mixed reviews. Any insight?
looking to run a Blox regualtor and gauge, and walbro 255 pump.
Is the rail even needed, I heard OEM can handle it.

unless you're doing some boostin/high compression/nitrous, the rail isn't needed. But they're pretty lol

Unless you have the demand for more fuel, and a tune, you're not gonna get any benefit really

What are your plans for the motor?

Im torn right now BlackAck, on one hand I want to go bisimoto single cam screamer. On the other I know our motors take well to boost. I know Im going to get a regulator, gauge and pump just to get better flow. and like you said the rails look nice! I had found one online for like 30 bucks or something rediculously cheap, so I was gonna just get it. lol.

It'll be much more for looks than better flow lol. Then again replacing all that old stock stuff might help. But a stock motor won't require higher fuel pressure, thus where the heavy modding come in

aight guys, you convinced me. Im going to direct my cash elsewhere for the time being. Going for a lightened CNC pully kit and the D2 pro springs before I attend to the fuel system. Thinking of going Ralco RZ on the pulleys.
