Charlie,
You may want your
pressure regulator to
follow your manifold pressure. This would be especially
useful at idle if
you were set at 58 lbs. Injectors are flow rated at
about 43.5 lbs, so at
58 they would put out more fuel than they were rated
for, which could make
getting your idle set correctly a problem. Or maybe
not??

(Other sites have pics; this was just the lowest price I
saw with a quick
search.)
I just saw it in a car magazine about an LS motor
installation. Apparently, the
pressure is set at ~58 lbs, but that's the approximate
set point for RX-8 cars,
right? I've already set up my dual fuel pumps, dual GM
filters as used by Ed A,
and an aftermarket 'hot rod' adjustable regulator, but
this device looks
attractive. The weight savings (& money savings)
seem to make it an
attractive option.The only downside that's immediately
comes to mind is whether
the entire assembly must be replaced to change the
filter.
