Default New Intake & Fuel System?

Here are some pictures of my new Pro-Flo Intake and fuel system. THe regulator is a Turbosmart FPR 1200. This is the way I think I am going to have it set up but I wanted to get some second opinions. I will be running a single Walbro in the tank for now.

The fuel comes into the front of the rails on the driver side of the motor and the return will go into the factory evap line.

Also has anyone seen a fuel pressure gauge like this? It's one I just had lying around so I thought I would give it a try.

I built one a little different... I did put the regulator in the very back of the intake with a guage you can only see from on top of the engine.... to keep everything hidden and out of the way... Intake looks nice and i have had great luck with the ls6 i installed mine on..

Looks good. Was just looking at my setup last night trying to figure out where to locate my FPR. I wish I had enough room between the intake and the firewall to run mine that way.

Does your FPR have the feed and return built into it?

What size feed and return are you using?

The return is coming from the bottom of the regulator (3rd picture down) and will go into my old evap line which is 3/8".

Looks sweet, powder coat it black then take a flap wheel to the Edelbrock and lines on top so it matches the fuel rails.

Do you have a return line back to the tank. I am running the same setup. Just trying to figure out the fuel system now. I am about to buy a FPR cause I know I'll need it(also needing advise on which one to buy and how to run). Car is in my signiture. Also, neeing a little help on guage and mounting. Sorry for busting in on your thread but just needing some help

Run a -an feed line to your rails and the stock feed line as a return.

So I don't need a FPR? Also, I'll be using the stock feed line as a return? Is this right? I'm not following
