I have a set of fuel rails from an 87 I'd sell, im not sure what they go for these days so feel free to make an offer.

Thanks

And FYI, 86.5 won't work for an S4, the 85/86 & 86.5 are all the same.

Rob Edwards

And 87 are different from '88 in terms of how they mount on the intake. What motor are these rails going on?

I don't recall a difference between 87 and 88.

85-86.5 are indeed different.

Rob Edwards

I'm a little confused on when the change was, it may only be early '87, which used rubber isolators on the intake mounting points, and shorter mounting 'legs' on the rails. Not exactly sure when the changeover happened in/after 1987.

Good discussion here:

If MJRocket's don't pan out, 928 Intl 1/2-price sale should be just around the corner.

Here are the ones i have...like new with shinny Zinc plating.

Thank you did not know that.

That being the case the 87 is the right one for me. thanks to all,what a great place.

The question about the head gaskets? would someone please address that?

Ducman82

i used that cooper colored Permitex gasket spray. no issues.

Rob Edwards

Nothing between the head gaskets and the block. Or heads, for that matter.

RFJ

Thanks to you both. Rob that is how i have always done it on american autos but knowing these cars i was am unsure. well I guess i am sure now but what quacker said might make sense if there were spots one was unsure of no? I never had trouble in the past but i am looking at this motor and wondering what could go wrong.

RFJ

Were these differences you speak of the only differences that there were???
