I'm not boosted but I literally just picked up my fuel rails from a shop that I had weld on some an fittings to. In my opinion wouldn't you have more options for regulators for you boosted guys that need all the fuel? I picked up a holley regulator that I have mounted on the firewall.

I didn't even think about that. How much did they charge you?
Found a guy at a custom motorcycle shop to weld them for $40. I called around a few different places. Seems that if all they have to do is weld, the average I got was $25 a fitting

Hmmm. Might make sense since the motor is apart anyways and I'm changing the oil return spot on my oil pan too.
The turbo setup is a Forced Induction Gen 2 system. Yeah, it should have been tearing up the street and tracks all these years, but the installers messed up everything inside and outside the motor. I'm doing everything over myself.
Definitely looking to switch over when life permits. Did you partial fill your block? Are you driving on the street too?
Not to hijack the thread but what's a good alternative for the mounting location? On the engine? I'm asking because I didn't' know this would be an issue.

On a 4th gen?
I have mine stashed slightly under/in front of the brake booster.
If you look upper right area, that red splash is my reg
Out of curiosity though, is there a benefit to going with a universal type regulator, rather than a direct fit boost-referenced one from Aeromotive, Holley, etc?

I would say cost, since you are not paying the LTX mark up tax, but, when you toss in the cost of doing all the lines, prob not.
For me, I have aftermarket rails, so the LTX reg would not work. If you plan on running AN lines and ditching the plastic lines, then the universal would be something to look into. FYI, mine is vac ref as well.
I was going to say the same thing as well. I looked into the ltx ones and ending up with that holley unit for $65. It's also vacuum reference and is adjustable up to 60psi. I did however already have an lines and just had to make one small line to add to the setup. Added cost of an fittings and line puts me around $200 total

I see the Holley for LT1 that's boos-referenced at almost $200. What are you looking at? haha
Looking more at these posts, Because I'll be nearing 1k HP at the flywheel, I think I want to convert over to a parallel setup. I don't want the last 1 or two injectors starved. The only downside is all of the posts I can find on this are so old most of the links don't work and pictures are gone. :/
