Thanks guys. Im running into a little problem with my fuel pressure regulator and that fuel rail though and i need your input. There is no place for the fuel pressure regulator to be mounted on that rail and so I'm thinking that I will just cut the mounting place for it on the old rail off and use a union to relocate it to a different spot on the fuel lines any thoughts on this?

Yeah they are gt40Ps and MAC headers are a real pain. I decided to just use my stock rail and put my new regulator on it until I can figure out what needs to be done with my other rail. It is a new adjustable regulator, my aftermarket fuel rail just doesnt have a place to mount it.
Ran into quite a few last minute problems today but in the end I got the engine in the car, projecting it to be running in two weeks! (I can only work on it on Saturdays) :/
