Default Well this is new to me: Fuel rail schrader valve related

I decided to pull the nitrous off my car. I have stock 2001 GM fuel rails. A Schrader valve needs to be screwed into the fuel rail to keep the fuel from squirting out.

I tried a tire Schrader valve. It was too big. Hmm. What to do? I happen to have a fuel rail off of a 1998 TA. Thinking I was in luck, I pulled the valve out of it. ALSO too big. What the hell?

I went to ABC and they didn't know either.

Why not put those T/A fuel rails with the vale in it on instead?

I would NEVER stoop to put inferior Trans Am parts on my beloved Camaro!

Yeah, that's one of the options I'm considering. The other are a pair of billet rails I've had in the box for about a year. This may be the excuse I need to get the rest of the stuff I need to install them.

I have an install kit available for any fuel rails to hook to your factory feed line.

if you dont need the test port you can get a -4an plug cap or local hardware store and get a 1/4 " brass flare cap.

I understand your sense of disappointment in not owning the best looking F-Body GM ever produced (98-02 Ram Air TransAm), but really, admitting your FU'd is the best way to recover your skewed perception of reality.

Ok, now study my signature and repeat after me "WOW nice WS-6"

That is a beautiful Firebird. I'd love for my my mother, wife, or sister to have one just like it!

Most little boys are use to having their ass beat by their momma, so I suppose that would be the easist way for you to come to terms with your poor perception of reality.
That way she could ease you into it.
