I like the modified uim. I might have a go at that this week.
What’s it like to do? Any tips?

Its pretty easy I did have a couple of problems though.

Easierst way is to remove the butterflies that are screwed on and then pull out rod unfortunately they just rounded off for me so I cut them out.

THen I sawed throught the centre to open it up as much as possible, then put the gastket on and used that as a template to draw round so I knew what size a wanted, I found a small worn out angel grinder disk popped that in and just worked back to my guide lines, then got a die grunder bit in the drill and tidyed it all up.

Primary rails comming along fine its at the engineergin place down the rd being milled down to take the 850\'s the next problem is how do i connect the seconday fule rail to my FRP. Seeing as I have an aftermartet FPR then I need to remove the one from the primary rail but if i do that how do I attach the hose, I have seen on amerinan websites a replacemnt that screws on and allows you ro fot -jic unions but I don\'t know any where in the uK

Not it the slightist mate, I have that picture its from rx7club from the thread about fitting keiths fuel rails, thats an aftermarket seconadary rail which comes tapped, I am trying to use the stock rail which isn\'t tapped and find a way of converting it to take -6 unions.

I would however like to tap my primary rail like that but I the rail I have doesn\'t have enough metal on it to do it like the ones in the pictures.

what size secondary injectors are you going to use?
Title: My recent efforts
Post by: allstaruk on February 18, 2007, 04:09:03 PM
I\'m sticking with the stock 850\'s as secondarys and uprating the primarys to 850\'s to, if thats not enough then I\'m going to add some injectors into the UIM but I\'m hoping it will do it.
