A few years ago a friend of mine built an LH fuel rail for a 99 out of an existing 16V rail, some copper tubing, and solder. It lined up nice. He also drilled out the CIS ports in the manifold to fit the LH injectors. The problem there was that the injectors didn't sit far enough down into the manifold so they would be spraying on the sides of it.
He has a new 99 now and has still been thinking about it but would need to do something different to the manifold. Maybe a D-Jet manifold might work better or the CIS one could be modified more to sink the injectors in deeper.
He also has a '78 EMS with turbo engine (that he bought from someone else after a fuel line broke and set the engine bay on fire). That car has a B engine, H exhaust manifold, H turbo, and APC.
I encourage the LH conversion project!
