2018+ VMP fuel rails

[dukecrazy]

I'm not sure if I'm just missing some info somewhere or what but these fuel rails are coming in contact with the hose connector at the front of the manifold. I'm hoping someone has already seen this before and knows what I'm missing. Any help would be really appreciated.

Should be on the other side if using oe quick connect to stock line.

Edit: sorry missed the my18 part.

Both 180° fittings are the exact same for both sides so that wouldn't work. I used all the included hardware and watched VMP's install video and nothing mentioned specific locations as far as this is concerned. Again, unless I'm missing something .

Nope don't think you are. Didn't pay attention to the my18+ info you shared.

I slightly bent the hose connection with a mallet, loosened the 2 8mm and installed/tightened everything up.

I appreciate the response and I did attempt to bend the tube but I decided that it really shouldn't be necessary to do for a product that says it fits the applications as designed. I ordered the low profile 180° fitting from fore innovations so I'm hoping that solves the fitment issue. If it does work you'd think VMP would take note.

man, I thought I had updated this thread with the results... oops. Here is how it turned out using the low profile 180 from FORE. it worked beautifully!
