then someone messed with the fuel rail adapter (fuel block). I have one sitting right in front of me, and they are 3/8 and 5/16 on the adapter. If you need a new adapter let me know.

Is the inboard (supercharger side) the larger or smaller fitting?

I just thought of something, The fuel pressure regulator block came with 3/8" quick connects for both the supply and return. Well, the return is 5/16". So temporarily we had to rig a hose using part of the factory rail until he can get a 5/16" quick connect fitting from magnasun. We did our best guess to which side was the supply and return...Those could be swapped but the pressure responds to boost and vacume as it should since it is referenced off the intake. Can someone varify which side is the pressure and return?

The 3/8 (feed) is on the outside of the rail adapter and the 5/16 (return) is on the inside.
