  Take some time and think about how you will be running your fuel lines and what regulator you will be using.  On my car, I have the crossover setup in the front.  My feed is on the driver side rear rail and the regulator is plugged into the rear of the passenger rail (edelbrock regulator).  I had to add a clamp to get the crossover away from the thermostat housing.
  I've also seen pics of a setup with 180 degree fittings plumbed the feed and return into the front of the rails and use a rear crossover.
  And figure out your throttle cable and return spring setup, since there is no boss to mount the factory bracket.
  Just a couple of thoughts before you get everything painted and finished!

Ohh I already have got it all planned out in my head. I’ll be dead heading the system at the rails kind of how some new OEM crates are. So one regulated supply will be split rear of the motor to feed both rails, yeah the system has some draw backs with handling debris but it will allow for a cleaner install. As for the throttle cable mount, I’ll be 3D printing brackets to check fit before having them laser cut. Same with the rail tie ins.

If it wasn’t for saving up for aluminum heads and working for a competitor to Edelbrock that probably would have been my route. Though making this intake has been a bit of fun.

Took a break from modeling the rail hold downs and started playing with a valve cover crossover breather system. All tacked now I just gotta burn it together.
