Monty and Charlie,
If you could measure the diameters that would be great.
Where did you find the tool with the counter bore?
Price?
Thanks for the input

They make a special cutting
tool with a counter bore on it for this job. I'm sure you can
accomplish the same thing with a drill, a counterbore, and a
couple reamers.

Does anyone know the sizes and configuration used to drill a fuel rail for RX8 injectors?
I think 7/16" will accommodate the first O ring.
Does there need to be a larger diameter to seat the second O ring which is different in shape? It is located close to where the electrical connector branches out.
Thanks for any help.

I've got a factory pair of
rails. I can measure the diameter of the
injector cups for you tomorrow. If you can use them, I'd be
happy to let them go for whatever I paid (was pretty cheap on
ebay). This set is for 4 injectors: the 2 in the center housing
+ 2 on the intake manifold, complete with hoses.

Hi Joe,
I had a jammed up day today & didn't make it to the hangar.
My apologies; I promise it will be the 1st thing on my list when
I get home tomorrow.

Sorry for the delay, but here you go. Attached is a pic of the
fuel rail I bought on ebay a few weeks ago. The cups measure
approx. 0.433". A 27/64" drill drops in easily; a 7/16" will not
drop in. The injector holes in the center iron measure ~0.708"
dia. The cups on the fuel rail have slightly 'bell' shaped
openings, but I can't detect any step in their diameters.
Hope that helps....
If you can use the stock rail, I think I have less than $20 in
it.
Charlie
