Some people run the corvette fuel filter right on the fuel rail and some do not. Why

tbi are return systems, vortec 350 are return systems, the vortec 6.0 is a return-less system. and put you filter under neath the vehicle in a way the matches the 6.0 setup if using 6.0 parts or your suv if you are using existing platform parts. do not under any circumstances put a filter very near or on top of an engine.
It depends on what type of fuel rail you have. do you have a return type or returnless type? i wish i took pics the other day of my finished settup but i forgot so i cant post any. but just look at your rail. if you have two lines headed toward the back, one bigger than the other than you have a return type. if you only have one, its returnless. the guy hacked yours up so you may not have what im talking about anymore. how many an fittings do you have? that should tell you.
anyway, most people convert to an so you can skip a couple parts. if you have returnless, thats when youll need the corvette filter. it has an IN and RETURN on one side and the other goes to the fuel rail. here is a diagram that i found with the required parts/numbers/and shows how they are connected. you will probably not use some of this stuff depending on hows yours is set up. i bought all these parts and it worked like a charm.
modified? does not even look like a normal fuel rail look like the entire thing was fabbed. i can see what looks like a normal test port. i take it the long line with the ridge on it is the fuel input?
I just ordered a Whipple 2.9L supercharger so my intake setup is for sale. Included is an L92 truck intake, 8.1L marine injectors, 92mm F.A.S.T. DBC throttle body, EV6 to Mini-tech ll harness adapters, MAP sensor and Evap. solenoid. The fuel rail has been modified so it can be used on return or returnless fuel systems. Please note that the IAC and TPS sensors are not included.
This setup has only been run since May (about 3.5 months) so the throttle body is near new and flawless. For the sake of full disclosure, I suspect that an injector may be bleeding down so I suggest having them cleaned. $700.00 shipped for the entire setup.
Wow this stuff is exciting..! Glad 2 see ur back at it... All of us obs guys are cheering u on... If u have 2 dump the fiance for the build we'll totally understand...
screw that. for me 40k goes to mods, another vehicle, tools, a/v equipment or movies. i really should have done automotive or diesel work instead of aircraft. that way i could just walk down the street for work instead of traveling. could just go home every day and play with more technical things.
