Hello everyone, new member here saying hi and hoping for a little help.
My 1988 GT needs a total redo of the fuel rails/injectors. This operation is happening in conjunction with a mass air conversion. I probably could get away with the 19 lb injectors but I have a set of new 24s, and a Mass air calibrated for them. The original rails are kind of beat up, so I am replacing them with aftermarket billet rails and adding a FPR to replace the stock. I have limited experience(none) with Ford fuel injection. This is my first mustang so be gentle. I am very unsure of the basics of how I should install this. I have the plastic tools to pop off the factory rails, but am not sure where I should install the aeromotive FPR, if height compared to the rails is an issue. I have about 10 ft of quality braided fuel line and a bunch of small fittings to make the connections, an inline pressure guage I'd like to install, and the aero FPR. I made a small mistake in my prep, the car has a Saleen kit on it all the way down to the rims and steering wheel. If I don't drive it on to a 2x8(front wheels) I can't get a jack under it. So I am unsure which line is the return and which is the feed, I understand the return is smaller under the car. I could use some setup advice and if someone has a schematic of how it should be, I'd really appreciate it.

p.s. I did not put the mods on this car, so I am a little fuzzy on some of the specifics like, what size is the TB, what aftermarket fuel pump is it etc.
