Up for sale is a stock fuel rail. $25 to Chris + $10 shipping for a grand total of $35 shipped and it's yours. There is no core charge, but please do return a core. If you wish to buy the rail outright then please add another $20 to the order. PM me to get the ball rolling. Any questions feel free to ask.

I'd take it off your hands if mine weren't already polished.

Unfortunately I'm going to have to put this on hold until I fix the 3/s. Not having a backup car isn't fun.
93SlugTT I'll have you a rail when I start this back up.

Unfortunately it's going pretty slow. I've got a lot of parts that need to be cleaned properly (I don't have a sandblaster) so that takes a good bit of time. Cleaning off the caked oil & dirt, stripping the paint, etc.

Sorry guys, I've been very busy lately and haven't had the time to work on this. I've gotten pretty backed up and I'm just starting to clean up the cores. Without a doubt I'll have a couple sets done by the beginning of summer if not earlier.

Do you have any polished rails ready to go? If so I'd like one.

Also interested in one.

I've got so much interest that I feel obligated to finish everything I have before offering anything up for sale. I wouldn't feel right being selective about who gets one, etc...
I will say that progress is very slow, I've had to pick up another job to make ends meet and that leaves me very little free time. Don't wait on me guys, I don't want to let y'all down by not meeting an ETA.

I've got 3 sets of cores now. But, I got anxious and am attempting to polish 1 set myself. From the amount of time I've spent so far, I think it's soooo much better for for someone else to do it, lol.
$35 plus cores is crazy cheap. I think 3sx charges $100 plus cores. Lucky for them, they also have machines to do most of the work. 10x the amount of work and 1/3 of the price...
Basically, I'm saying this is an awesome deal, definitely worth it, he could charge more and nooone should complain and even if he was somehow charging more than 3sx, it's for a good cause. If this 1st set turns out ok for me and I have a little more free time (after NG and BRG), I might join you in this. I'm also working on thermostat housings and fill necks. And after seeing this http://www.3sgto.org/f2/taking-apart-99-vr-4-over-weekend-3191-18.html I'm inspired to try some AC lines :)

I agree, progress is very slow. I was happy with the polished fuel rail and loop, but not so much with the valve cover. I ended up sending it to one of my contacts in California to get a show quality polishing job.

Sorry for the disappointment.
If anyone wants my cores I'll send them to you free of charge. About 8 rails, 4 valve covers, 2 na manifolds. Just send me a PM.
Sorry y'all.

Hey let me know when you get caught up and I'll take one for sure! I'd send the core in first but I daily drive my Stealth so I can't.
Keep up the good work!
