Re: fuel pressure reg mounts

I am running a mechanical pump, here is where mine is located.

I was going to run a Holley elec pump, but my local speedshop did not recommend Holley pumps, due to their consistent failure and ability to send broken parts thru the fuel system.

Re: fuel pressure reg mounts

I'm running the Holley red pump but planning to switch to a mechanical pump soon. Anyway, my regulator is mounted to the intake and connected to a Holley carb. The Edelbrock carb fuel line routing would be very similar.

Thanks for the compliment. I am trying to hide as much as I can under the hood, thought tucking the regulator up close to the carb under the air cleaner would help. The bracket was easy to make, bending the lines was another story!

Re: fuel pressure reg mounts

Edelbrock could use the same kinda of mount. You just don't need the dual outlets. The one on bigblock73's would work for you as just use a 90* fitting to hook up the gauge to. Otherwise it will work the same. Hope this helps.
