Default Mounting Fuel Regulator ?

Where did you mount your fuel regulator under the hood and what screws to secure them in place ? I have the Racetronix fuel kit for a 1999 camaro.

I drilled and tapped holes on the driver side strut tower. I used the bracket that came with Holley regulator.

Just mount it to the driver frame rail or strut tower as @LilJayV10 said. Most common place for them. I would either drill and tap, or drill and use some riv nuts. I use riv nuts all over the vette (mainly due to the thing being fiberglass lol)

I'm looking at mounting mine behind the front wheel, inside the fender liner on the drivers side. I'm planning to run dedicated feed/return lines up the side of the car between the pinch weld and the SFC. there's a nice spot for them to come through, go through the fender well, and up from under the fuse block to the strut tower where the regulator will be mounted.

This isn’t the regulator (I’m mounting that directly to the rail) but this is what I did to mount the racetronix filter in the stockish location. I’m waiting on 45* fittings to attach the lines.

I used some aluminum strap and bent it to a 90* installed some rivnuts to attach them to the car, then mounted the filter bracket to them.
