Default What Fuel Regulator do I use?

I have a 5.3L LM7 with a 2005 intake with no return line. I need to buy a fuel regulator and I'm looking at the $100-150 range. The cheaper the better. What is a good regulator, or does it matter as long as it is adjustable. I'm using 3/8 aluminum fuel line if that makes a difference.

What about using the vette filter/regulator combo? I think you can get them for ~40. It is not adjustable, but you don`t need adjustability if the motor is close to stock.

Just use the vette/filter combo. Any auto parts store will have it. You can mod the fuel rail and just dip it on the inlet of the rail then plum the supply and return. Or place it on the frame etc... Pretty cheap.
