I've seen similar filters on a few Ford products.

Im trying to avoid the adjustable regulator , as they seem to cost about 3 times the amount as the corvette regulator , and then I would have to buy a fillter on top of that , so it ends up being about 4 times the cost , plus Im familar with doing the corvette method , and the old adage applies , keep it simple , dont fix what is not broke

You might check what the LT1 covette, Camaros, etc used. I think the TPI ran at about 45psi.

You are correct . I checked the lt1 lt4 , tpi regulators and they plug into the fuel rail somehow , not a separate unit like the newer vette ls regulators

An Aeromotive clone adjustable regulator with guage can be had on line for under $30 and work well. Steve
