I just feel feeding both rails is unnecessary and overly complicated. I feed the back of one rail, crossover then reg at the end of the other. Works fine. Yours should be fine, just a lot going on which means a lot of places to leak...

Always two ways to skin a cat. I'm going to feed both rails as well. All the fuel product manufacturers that I've seen recommend feeding both rails and every high horsepower build seems to do that. No reason not to feed both rails if it works for everyone.

I've used several of those Summit fittings and ended up with a leaky one recently. They refunded it no questions asked and replaced with aeromotive an fitting, much better.

All those fittings with the exception of the brake booster one are ptfe style hose ends by fragola. They are ALOT stronger than you typical rubber line hose ends. I use fragola brand soley now. Always good quality sometimes a little pricy but i like them. . The only reason that one summit rubber hose end is in there is for mockup. I stopped using rubber hose ends along time ago.

If you have ever seen what long term (1 year plus) does to standard rubber braided line you would probably stop using them as well.

I have 1 piece of summit rubber ljne left on my truck. Once i get this intake installed i will post up what it looks like.

Good to know , but I've never had an issue with the summit ones , they are probably made by earls or another manufacture just renamed . I like them .
