Fuel question

I am running a 99 camaro intake on my 5.3 . The camaro intake has the factory regultor on the fuel rail. I am going to run a inline pump with a corvette filter/regulator do i need to remove the factory regulator?

That's not a regulator, it's a pulsator. Only '97-8 Corvettes with the return style rail have regulators on them. If it's a Camaro rail, it'll be returnless and not have a regulator, so leave it be and run the Vette filter like you stated.

Thanks I did't even think about it being a pulsator.

An easy way to tell the difference is to look for a vacuum line connection. The two parts look a lot alike, but the pulsation dampener will not have a vacuum line connection.
