I have a 351. In order for the fuel rail to fit properly I had to remove those hoses and replace them with longer ones. Just make sure you use high pressure fuel line and some hose clamps. That was a long time ago. I forget exactly how I took them off, but I think it was just a matter of removing a steel band that was crimped on there or something.
