Cool man! How's she holding up?

Yeah I'm going to check into either making some spacers or having some made, and if I have them made I will have several made just in case others want or need them.
I ran it tonight after letting it cure for 24 hours, and it is SEALED. I'm stoked haha.

You could even buy a 1/4" sheet of phenolic and use that as your spacer/gasket in one.

Well I'm using only the phenolic gasket, not the stock gasket with it. It's sealed up now and my fuel rails aren't touching so I'm happy, as long as it lasts haha.
Oh BTW, do you know that the fuel kit you sold me a couple years ago had an RX-8 primary rail? I discovered that after trying like hell to make it fit and then calling KG Parts.
