Hi there, trying to install a fuel rail on my evo 1. I would rather just use a stock rail with adaptors to go to 6AN but this is what I have.

It's one of those ebay rails. http://www.ebay.com/itm/High-Flow-F...olution-EVO-1-2-3-4G63-92-96-BL-/221575572484

When I try to install it I just can't figure out how to space it out so that the 3 bolts do up. If I put the injectors in without any spacers and the bolt, the bolt doesn't even reach the threads.

It also comes with these 4 weird metal things with seals. Really don't know how they fit in.

Anyone installed one of these before? thanks. I feel like I'm doing something really stupid here.

Here are some pics

That looks so cheesy that I dont know that I would want 70 lbs or so of fuel running through it, even if I could make it fit.

Thanks all. I'm pretty sure the extra parts are for use with 14mm injectors. I also think this is not "bolt on" think its for use with different length injectors. It's the only way that I can see that it would fit.

Thought I would give it a go as it came with some other parts I bought. Guess I'll go back to the drawing board and find some 6AN fittings for my stock rail.
 
What's the bottom of the rail look like? Could be some kind of adapter for diff fuel injectors. Or part of the spacers? Do the spacers even fit between the head and rail?

Yeah that's what I thought, some sort of weird extra spacer, but no, they didn't fit there either :p
