LS swap fuel line plumbing to fuel rails, can I plug off the fuel rails on the front and run individual fuel lines to the back?

I’m installing a new Holly intake manifold with new fuel rails. I don’t have enough room to install the crossover fuel line in front. The alternator gets in the way. Can I plug off the fuel rails on the front and run individual fuel lines to the back? If yes, do you have a recommendation on the orientation for the tea for the fuel lines coming from the fuel pressure regulator? Can I plumb it in any direction?

Yeah for sure! Just Y it off from the regulator.

Yes, you can, the rails just need 58PSI, they do not care how they get it.

Thank you so much for using 2CarPros!

Thank you very much. I think this will look cleaner from the front as well. I did find a low-profile elbow that I think will work but now I have 2 options. Thanks so much. love your YouTube videos, very helpful.
