Default Fuels system questions

This is what I have and what is planned so far.

LY6, TBSS intake, 243 heads, GT45 turbo, Walbro 450 pump.

Im thinking of running hard lines due to the cost of the AN stuff. I was planning on using the corvette regulator, but about half the posts I read say don't use it.

What would be a good budget friendly fuel pressure regulator, can I use my stock TBSS fuel rails and what size fuel line am I going to need for this.

Thanks

search ebay by lowest cost + shipping for

"efi adjustable fuel pressure regulator"

run -8 feed and use the stock 3/8 feed for your return

The Racetronix one is $99 from ws6store. When I was looking/researching them it was the cheapest one that I found that I figured was still of good quality.

I honestly got away ebay special for a long time till i went with the zl1 primary and a 4303 magna fuel as a secondary then it just wouldnt return enough fuel with both pumps running it would go crazy high pressure. It should work fine for you.
