Hello all, I need a quality fuel pressure regulator for dual Kads, so low pressure .I currently have a diaphram unit that doesnt regulate very well, not the dial but a small saucer /disk. Any suggestions for a quality unit :?:
Thank you.

If you are running a stock pump, it's not that hard to set it up correctly so you don't need a regulator - What is your pressure now?

I use the holey regulators, they are like $35 and have two outlet ports so they works great. I have this one on with dual kadrons and it is always a constant 1.5 PSI fuel pressure.

Thank all for the replies. My current pressure varying due to my faulty regulator.It all started with a new fuel pump as the o;d one was leaking gas badly into the case.So after installing the new pump we were at 3.5-3.7 psi,too high.So when i went to adjust the regulator to a lower pressure, it was not responding well, I turned and turned the screw until it was almost OUT of the regulator housing.Then we adjusted some more and currently it READS 1.5, but the screw is in a much different position as when it read 2.3,so this leads me to believe the reg.is not accurate. The holley looks real good, has anyone used the AC.net unit?

I mounted mine on the side. I use oil filled gauges for both my fuel and oil. The oil gauge is from a Harley.
