Guys question.

Boust some fuel rails for the 5. - however there is not a provision on there for
the fuel pressure regulator...

So my question is how do you think I should set this up?

Currently there are the two rails, and a highflow crossover on the front. the passenger side rail has
the fitting for the input line (to the stock fuel line) and then I have the drivers side (which will be connected to the return line)

So what I was thinking was buyint a regulator to put on AFTER the drivers side (inbetweeen the return fuel line and rail)


Does this make sense? If not, then any recomindations?

Thanks

The regulator looks like its on the rail on my stock rails?

Thats why i was like wtf is going on. Its the cylinder with the vaccum line going to it correct?
There is no provision on my new rails for it.

It is on the rail on your stock rails, but an aftermarket one needs to be between the rail and return line, that's how it works, it pinches off the return line.

I put mine behind the passenger rail. Feed goes to rear of driver rail, crosses over up front, goes through regulator, return comes out of there.

No worries dude. I've put together several fuel systems for me and my friends.

Hey Paul,

Out of curiosity where did you get that Fuel Pressure Regulator from that you have pictured?

Aeromotive. I had it (and the rails) anodized black because they didn't match my motor.

I bought the rails used for dirt cheap, and the dummy that had them hand ground down the surface of them with a die grinder so they looked terrible. My friend put them in his CNC mill, re-machined the surfaces so they looked perfect again, and then I had everything anodized in a batch of parts he was having done for free. It pays to have good friends. :)
