In the tank. The piece on the rail is a dampener which smooths out the pulses from the sequential injection.
Fuel from the pump goes to the filter which is connected via return line back insie the tank to the regulator.

The cylinder on the rail is the fuel dampener which evens the flow between the two rails. The regulator is sadly enough, in the bucket. What kind of problems with the fuel system are you having?

My problems is, Im running an inline walbro 255 also with the stocker in the tank. Im using the hot wire kit.
My fuel pressure would always be at 65-64ps1 i have a gauge in the car. One day i started it up after driving and it was a t 53.
Ever since i will start it and it will be at 65 and as i warms up it will go down and sit at around 51-55psi and go down when i go wot.
Ive replace the inline pump, fuel filter, fuel pump relay, and checkes for bends in lines.
I checked with a manual guage to rule out my gauge and it was the same result. Not sure whats going on.
