I just ordered the two fittings I listed above and they should be here on thursday. I now have the issue that the return line from the regulator in the 6 0'clock position but the only line option was straight or 30* so I chose straight. Does anyone know where I can find a 3/8 NPT 90* Male/Female fitting?

I had them over night shipped, 70 Bones! Now it's a matter of crunch time. I don't have the time to buy anything else, The cars getting tuned on the 16th and I still haven't even broke in this stupid shortblock. With everything that's been done to the engine and car the last few months, i need to work out the bugs so there's no surprises on the dyno.
rant...
I really wish I had did the smart thing and built this stupid engine right the first time last year. I think after I put it back together I'm going to burn it to the ground, collect the insurance and live under a bridge!!! I'm not a stressful person but I'm so battled for time right now I'm almost shaking. I even crushed my finger the other night and tearing off my fingernail completely all the way under the cuticle.
LET THIS BE A NOTICE TO EVERYONE. BUILD YOUR CAR RIGHT THE FIRST TIME! EVEN Non Noobs **** UP, ONCE IN A WHILE!

New rule: sxynerd is not allowed to buy parts for his car without talking to me first.
I could have told you before you bought it that the fuel rails are complete garbage. I have a set that are all stripped out sitting in the garage. I will look later and see if I have those fittings and the fuel line for you.

What's worse, is I know I'm going to be buying all of this stuff again next year when I sump the tank and do it right. If I don't just buy a Yugo instead.... But I can't go another summer without my car.
