nx nitrous kit

i just bought a nx 150 wet shot kit, and i am wondering how to tap into the fuel lines on my 95 Z-28. The booklet says to either use the test fuel port or to splice into the high pressure fuel lines. I would prefer to use the test fuel port but i do not know where it is, and if i have to splice into a fuel line, which one do i tap into, being that there are three lines side by side that say fuel lines.
Being so, once i finish up on the fuel lines i should be done installing and wiring everything. I cant wait....

do you have the t already? You don't want to just use a hose clamp on that line, if it leaks you can have a fire, fire = bad.Best thing is go to the shrader valve

i want to go to the shrader valve but the thing is that i dont have enough hose to make it there, and im gonna have to take the fuel lines off and the injectors to get to it. just a pain in the ***, but i guess i will do it ne ways, jus now i have to go and buy more hose.

It takes three minutes to get the fuel rail off assuming you don't have a strut tower brace. Four bolts and a little forcing and the rail will come right out with the injectors. You shouldn't have to mess with the injectors at all.

I am stressing DO NOT try to splice into the lines under the hood. First of all they are plastic and given the year I am assuming they might get a little more brittle. Also- the way the fuel lines are routed they just happen to be right above the headers/exhaust manifold. One little leak will be all it takes for you to be calling your insurance company explaining why the Fire dept. is soaking your car in water.

Go off the shrader- its the best way to it...
