My plan is to start the car up before I make the final "Wet" connection to the motor. So I ordered this little hose that ICT Billet offer so I can bypass the Vintage Air.
Not sure why I took this picture but I like it.
Tank is going back in and I am going to finalize the wiring to the Fuel Pump and sending unit. ( 10-09-21 )
I stepped the shrink wrap so the grommet would stay in place.
I also saved and labeled an extra grommet just in case I needed one later. Yes, I am building a service kit for the car that I will stow in the trunk.
I also ran the wires around the tank.
So it looks like I need to add one more Weld Stud...Ugh !!!
I finally received the fitting I need to connect the Fuel Pressure Sensor to the Fuel Rail. I am sorry I don't really like it as it has to many points that could leak.

Is there a place on the actual fuel rail to just weld a bung on for it?

Where on the rail will this be mounted? #8 AN? I use aluminum AN conical seals on all my stainless brake line fittings to ensure sealing, they'd work great here too.
You could save one fitting by using an adaptor that goes from male AN ORB to male an. That would screw directly into the rail, replacing the one separate fitting on the right.
So I found this fitting that allows me to thread it right into the fuel rail
It's just a hair shorter then using the hodgepodge setup I started with. However, I really like the sensor aiming down as it sticks way out.
Any chance you happen to know the part number of the fitting you posted ??

I wouldn't hang the sensor off the rail or anywhere on the engine. The vibrations will kill even the highest quality sensors eventually. My Holley sensor lasted on the rail for about 15K miles.

This may seem excessive but WTH I am doing it anyway (10-16-21)
As you all know I have issue's and because of that I gently removed all of the screws from the Notchhead clamps so I could put a
little grease & paint in them to hopefully prevent the holes from rusting.
I will also be removing all of the blue tape. Yea Me !!!
I put a very thin coat of Duplicolor paint and primer in one in all of the holes as this would be the easiest way to apply paint without getting it everywhere.
On a side note the Billet Battery Tray Wilson Muscle Car designed makes a very nice parts tray.
All of the Blue Tape has finally been removed from the subframe.
