I took out the straight piece and found a 45 that screwed into the aem reg.. it just barely clears but it worked just fine. If I can find the receipt I can get you the part number, but I know I got it from Summitt.

Here is what it looked like... you could get one with a barb fitting instead.

you can mount a banjo style fitting into the bottom of the regulator.

or you can get the fuel rail adapter from jackson racing, which mounts the FPR about 45 deg. differant,

Golden eagle makes a 90 degree fitting for the fuel rail. I personally used one and thought it looked like ****. The best thing to do is use a banjo fitting on the bottom on the FPR instead of a straight.
