Edelbrock Fuel Line Question

I'm planning to switch to an all metal fuel line from pump to carb (Edelbrock Performer Series 1406) with an Edelbrock 8131 Chrome Fuel Line kit. I noticed that the description on Amazon noted: "Does not work with OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) fuel pumps." I have a stock fuel pump. Is that really ture? I didn't think so but figured I'd better ask you all. Aslo, do any of you use or have an opinion on using a fuel pressure regulator (e.g. Spectre 2517) with that?

Thanks.

You will need to make a new steel line from pump to filter and use a 6 an fitting to connect to the filter

And find a better fuel regulator. Those aren't the best. Cheaply built.
