Default high and low pressure regulator off a single walbro 340 ?

Fuel system return type single 340 walbro hot wire kit. Question is can I run a head and cam Corvette engine off of the above fuel system with high pressure to feed engine and also feed another regulator low pressure to feed the nitrous direct port 150 jets, both regulators will return to tank . Could this work? Dont want to run high pressure for small fuel jets and worrying about clogging. This will be a street car with very little track use . Any one try this or see any reasons it will not work. Thanks

I've never tried it but I don't see why it wouldn't.

I know that you can regulate that style pump down to low pressure without any issues, I'm running my carb setup off one.

Do it and let us know how it does.

2 return style regulators in parallel will not work. The lower pressure reg. will return all the fuel & there will not be enough pressure for the other.

You either need 2 independent fuel systems or a low pressure deadhead style regulator slaved off the high pressure system. Usually not good due to pressure creep, unless you add a small bleed/return.
