Fuel rail rebuild question - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

1991 Corvette ZR-1 · 10-30-2021

I am probably splitting hairs on this one but I am also posting some pictures to verify. I am rebuilding the fuel rails tomorrow, including a new fuel pressure regulator. I have noticed in some owner?s photos that show the rails, the pipes seem to be fully seated against the rail. As you will see from my photos, my pipes are not fully flush against the rail.

I know the O rings are what handle the sealing but this seems like the rails have been tweaked during removal at some point if the flange is not flush against the rail. I have had these off before but I remember the first time I pulled them years ago they were like this before I ever touched them. Figured it would not hurt to double check with the group.
