Dual feed is kind of funny because of where the FPR goes. I've been nagging tunertoys to make a high volume 99 style rail. Single ended would be fine with the extra volume.

You probably should read the swap info on FM's site and pick up a copy of Kieth Tanner's older book. It has a section about 1.8 swaps, and I know you'll be able to follow it because there's pictures.

I think that would be a good move. Anyone who's after power is using this motor anyway.
Since you are running with the MS, you should also see about getting an M1, 1.8 alternator. The problem is, the 99+ one will be with the ECU controlling the voltage. M1 1.8's have it still on the alt.

Poop. I was almost right.
I highly suggest the fuel rail information in this thread get's added to POST#2 in the FAQ so future '99 owners have the details immediately accessible. I'll be one of them in a year or so.
Hustler, 1.8 alternators are easy and cheap to come buy, it would save you some hassel if you used the 94-97. Try to find an automatic one if you can, more amps.

what bracket should I use then, and will I have to mod it? I do not have the 99 bracket. I assume that I can then use the 99 pullies.
I originally planned on using the 1.6 bracket from some write-up. I need to just go to my parents house and hope to remember what that big box of parts looks like...of course everything else is in a labeled bag.
