I also voted yes to this even though i would not be personally buying them (KRC's are fine)
Lot of guys have had trouble finding fuel rails for their builds over the years & didnt want to pay what KRC wanted.
With the age of these trucks now, most will be in the need of a rebuild.
That or bought cheap & new owners with spare cash want to go crazy with them power wise.
This would be good to have another source for rails for both Rams & Daks that do strokers & or boost setups.

I TRIED TO VOTE to help the cause but i think you would have better luck with a group buy from Wilson Manifolds. I think Wilson makes the rails for KRC,could be wrong. Never the less Wilson makes a good product.

For the DIY'ERS off the shelf Edelbrocks,Professional Products rails have the same injector spacing but stands/mounts would be needed. Ross Machine Racing,Hipotek are another.

^Thanks, taken me a bit of time/effort to get it this far.
More involved will help this happen for those that maybe interested
Might be a good idea to post this thread on the Dak & Durango forums as well for our other members that are also running 5.2/5.9 motors.

Voted yes. Why not. We need more aftermarket parts.

Now to hi-jack the thread. What is the point of fuel rails as opposed to the way things are from factory?

Basic bore/stroke 408s dont need rails but if your serious on hp & run big heads & decent cam &/or add boost as well then it is needed.


Alum fuel rails dont rust inside (or outside)
Have larger ID so are able to carry more fuel
Allow you to run much bigger pump & fuel lines (oem tiny)
Fuel runs slightly cooler as alum dissipates heat faster (not that fuels in there that long)
Look badass compared to stock junk
