The fuel supply manifold, Fig. 11, delivers high pressure fuel from the fuel supply line to the injectors. The assembly consists of two banks of stamped fuel rails connected by a crossover connection, six or eight injection connectors, a mounting flange to the fuel pressure regulator and mounting attachments which locate the fuel manifold assembly and retain fuel injectors.
