The Buschur is NOT an aeromotive it is a SX. Also it does not have a bracket attached, the whole body is a one piece billet unit. How do you suppose you could make one of these on your own with out a machine shop and end up with a 2 piece unit that could potentially leak? Not trying to rant just wondering where you got that from? BTW here is a link to the picture of it:

I will be going with an aeromotive/wally pump combo, with aeromotive afpr, custom fuel rail and large injectors.

If you are going to do it, do it right. The buschur bolt on would probably be your best choice unless you can find an old school charged air/spoolin up, but that wont happen.
Yes you can, and I have one already done for a 1g. All you have to do it tap the fuel rail where the FPR is to 3/4-16 and put either a #8 unioin or #8 to #6 union in with an oring on the #8 side that will be screwed into the rail. Or you can cut apart your stock FPR and weld a #8 male bung directly to it and screw the AFPR to it though I would caution against the later methond as you better tack the bung on with it screwed into the AFPR for alignment reasons.

What do you mean yes you can? I never said you can't do anything in my last post. I said you don't have to get a new rail and can use the stock one. And why go through all of what you did then they make a bolt on adapter that goes into your fuel rail like the standard line and has your choice of an thread on the other? You did it the hard way.

I never implied you said anything of the sort. I appologize if you took it that way. For why I tapped it, one union fitting cost me $2.50, the adapter fitting is what $25?

I just picked up a non-turbo 2.0 FPR from the junkyard and tossed it on. 48 psi base pressure is above what even a rewired 255hp will overrun to; adjust injector compensation for the extra fuel, voila- no more rich idle, 2 mpg increase in my gas mileage, and a good bit more fuel out of my injectors. Much cheaper and easier than all the aftermarket junk as long as you're not running more than 25 psi, which is when the fuel pressure gets too high and you then need the afpr to prevent overrun at a lower base pressure.
