THIS FUEL RAIL ON A '76 280Z I WAS LOOKING AT WAS IN A STRAIGHT LINE, AND THEN WHEN I TOOK A LOOK AT MY FUEL RAIL '78 280Z, I NOTICE THAT MY FUEL RAIL WAS IN A OVAL LIKE SHAPE. I WAS WONDERING IF I COULD TAKE THAT 76 FUEL RAIL AND SLAP IT ON MY Z. IF IT CAN BE DONE WOULD SOMEBODY LET MY KNOW, CAUSE IT WOULD MAKE THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT LITTLE BIT MORE NEATER

THANK YOU
THE LAST OF THE FIRST GEN Z

 

Yeah......Visit www.zcar.com & do a search for fuel rail. Guys there have pics of their rails. From what I've read, it's pretty easy to do once you have the stock rail removed....

 

So you saw the straight fuel rail in a parts car? I think you should remove it and send it to me for inspection. I'll let you know if you can use it.

 

i have a 75 280 and i at one point replaced the stock fuel rail with one from a later injection setup, i think because i needed a pressure regulator and didnt have one for my year. whats the advantage of the earlier rail?
