Thats a great post.. I'd just like to add few things that you can add to your text up there.
The stock fuel rail with schrader valve is regarded as '2003 Fuel Rail', but some early to mid 2004's came with a schrader valve as well, so best thing is to pull off the injector cover and look at the end of the rail closest to the battery. If there is a cap on the end thats a schrader valve. To supply fuel thru it, you need to depressurize the fuel system by pulling the Fuel pump fuse, and cranking the motor over until it shuts off few times. There will still be some fuel left so have shop towels ready. Schrader valve is an exact same valve as your tire valve. You need a TIRE VALVE STEM REMOVER to unscrew the valve out leaving the fuel rail open on one end.
The most secure fuel connection you can have is by using a -4AN braided FUEL line which will thread DIRECTLY onto the 03 Fuel rail without any other modifications.
DO NOT USE TEFLON TAPE ON FUEL CONNECTIONS. There are special teflon tapes out there which are used for fuel connections if necessary. They are generally PINK in color as opposed to white.
Once again, great post.
