During engine dyno testing for a 5.0 and Superfords intake shootout they wanted to use Vortech rails on all of the intakes for the test.
We found that the driver side Vortech rail hit the stock 86-93 distibutor. We tried them on every intkae and they still hit.
At the time, our prototype rails had fuel line hose connecting them together. We ended up using the BBK protos for all of the tests.
That's where we got the idea to make a Universal Rail Kit (5010) for all other intakes other than the SSI.
Distributor clearance is why the BBK rails have a special fitting at the end of the driver side rail. I made sure the end of the rail was as far away (it's still close) as possible.
Summit sells BBK 5010 which is a complete kit including hoses for $
410 less than the Aeromotive kit that has hoses and fittings in it and 5010 is $30 less than the low buck Aeromotive kit (rails only)
Their rails are 5/8" I.D.
For applications up to 2,000 HP.
Ours are 1/2" I.D.
They "only" support up to 1,500 H.P.
Do the Aeromtive rails hit the dizzy?
