| 1. A fuel rail, comprising:
an elongate lining having a surface defining a lumen;
a pressure port having a lumen in fluid communication with the lumen of the elongate lining, where the surface of the elongate
lining tapers from a first predetermined cross-sectional dimension at an inlet port of the fuel rail to a second predetermined
cross-sectional dimension spaced away from the inlet port to allow for a uniform pressure drop of a fluid across each pressure
port; and
a thermoset composite body surrounding at least a portion of the elongate lining and the pressure port.
