Zusammenfassung:	A modular system for injecting fuel into an engine comprises a fuel rail coupled to the engine. A plurality of connection members are coupled to the fuel rail, and each of the plurality of connection members is configured to receive fuel from the fuel rail. The fuel is directed to a plurality of fuel injectors, and the plurality of fuel injectors are configured to direct fuel to a plurality of cylinders. A plurality of outer fuel lines are coupled to the plurality of connection members, and the plurality of outer fuel lines are arranged in a single configuration. The single configuration allows the fuel rail to be coupled to a plurality of engine configurations while maintaining the plurality of outer fuel lines arranged in the single configuration.
