How are the fuel rails setup on the new whipple? I don't see a crossover. Aftermarket rails?

What did Ryan23Silverado ever do with his A2W whipple setup? I see him on here lurking every once in a while. I'm going to PM him.

I haven't talked to him since I first built my intercooler, I shot around some thoughts with him then went the Air to Air route.

Well I had this week off so I did some weight reduction and got my front bumper ready for the Joe Gibbs front cover, I am pretty sure I lost about 200lbs between the rear bumper, hitch and spare tire, I also relocated the spare tire crank for the roll pan I ordered, I definately am getting the whipple, but I don't know if I am getting the truck repainted or just painting the bumper cover and rollpan, and cut and buff the body. I also did some math on the wheels that I got, they are 20" ss wheels with 275/55/20, they weigh 91lbs and the stock wheels weigh 65lbs that's about 100lbs between the wheels and tires, I should of done more research before I bought them, I think that's where my gas mileage went!

The kit won't come out until next month and I am waiting for tax season, I wish I could get some wheels that weigh the same as stock, I also wish I hadn't sold the stock ones I would be able to see if that is what killed my gas mileage. Does any one know where I can find a doughnut tire to hide behind my rollpan? I used a astro van doughnut tire on my 97 silverado it worked great!
