Default Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator

Where can I find an adjustable fuel pressure regulator. I may not have looked hard enough but all I have been able to find are adjustable regulators for lt1s.

Aeromotive 13105 works well on mine. I turned it into a return-style system though. Fairly easy to do and under $200.

Chris,

Can you give me detailed info on how you went about doing this?

Thanks!

Sure thing. This is what I used to do my return style setup:

1 Aeromotive Fuel press. reg - 13105
1 45* hose end (-4) - 304604ERL
2 90* hose ends (-4) - 309104ERL
1 straight hose end (-4) - 300104ERL
2 -6/-4 union reducers - 991906ERL
1 -5/-4 union reducer - 991903ERL
1 -5 tube nut - 581805ERL
1 -5 tube sleeve - 581905ERL
2 -6 tube nuts - 581806ERL
2 -6 tube sleeves - 581906ERL
1 -6/-6 union - 981506ERL
?? feet of -4 steel braided line

Starting at the back of the car, I removed the T-block and cut all three hard lines. Install the -6 sleeves and tube nuts on the main feed line then flare the ends. Connect with -6 union. Install the -5 sleeve and tube nut on the stock return line and flare the end. Install the -5/-4 union reducer. Run steel braided line up to front of car (I followed the stock feed line behind heat shields). Use straight -4 fitting on back end of hose and 45* -4 fitting on front end of hose. Install -6/-4 union reducers on regulator in place of Aeromotive supplied -6's. I mounted the regulator on the driver side fender after fabbing a small bracket to mount to strut bolt. Make line for regulator to fuel rail using 90* -4 fittings (be sure to do final tightening of fittings after obtaining required angles between regulator and fuel rail).

Now all that being said... It is obviously not the BEST fuel system set up but for my current HP levels it has been adequate. As you are boosted, you might be better off using the stock feed as a return and running some -6 line as a main feed. Hope this helps.
