Do I need a pressure Regulator?
If you have already put the duel lines in from the tank to the engine bay.. then you may want to use a good aftermarket filter and Regulator..
If not.. use the Corvette one Filter/Regulator (99) closes to the tank and you will only need one line (unless you want to run the duel lines)

and if you go with the 'vette pressure regulator, the GM part number and alll the details on how to adapt all the fittings to it here: https://ls1tech.com/forums/showpost....&postcount=131

Because I have experienced problems in the past with vapor lock with this car, even with heat wrapping on fuel line and good mechanical and/or elecrical pumps. (It gets pretty hot under the hood of that '56. That may be a contributor.) I'm doing all I can to eliminate that problem, and the dual line will help immensely, from what I understand. Very strong recommendation to do it that way from Street and Performance, especially if concerned about vapor lock.
So, that eliminates use of the Corvette regulator. So, I'm not sure yet what regulator I will use.

If your engine is under 500 hp and doesn't need excessive fuel flow,use the 97-98 vette fuel rail with the regulator on it, these years have a feed and a return line. S&P sells them $$$$,but should be cheap on ebay.
I am going to be installing the fuel system soon and picked up an Aeromotive regulator. By the time I finished fetting hoses, fittings, fuel rails, filter ... I hit a large chunk of $$$$, but still less than some quotes I had gotten. I am running -8 supply/-6 return.
