hey! I had to say whats up since I don't see you post much...

I don't understand why your asking about the fuel reg locations? isn't there just one spot for it on the fuel rail? or is that just on the B-series?

its a universal mount since the rail mounted one wont fit with the golden eagle intake manifold since the angle of the runner gets in the way. now dont be posting on my threads unless you have a productive answer

i dont want to highjack your thread but i will add , if you are gonna mount the regulator on the end of the fuel rail like pictured above do yourself a favor and get yourself a steel fitting, do not and i will stress this do not use an aluminum fitting to attach the regulator to the rail. there is a chance that the aluminum fitting will break. due to the vibrations the engines produces the regulator can break the fitting and in turn you have a whole lot of gas pouring right onto your alternator and in that case you will not have a car anymore, because it will be a ball of flames real fast. i have seen this happen with my own eyes and have had a close friend loose a car because of it. its a real simple solution and will save you heartache if the aluminum one does break.

im not sayin that it is guaranteed that the fitting will break because i have seen people get away with it but there is still that chance that it could happen and can be prevented from switching to a steel fitting...

only issue with the firewall is that there is no flat area to mount it without the top of the regulator hitting something

Thats for my Greddy Fuel Pressure Gauge.

In regards to a steel fitting, you can also make a bracket that connects the regulator to the rail to make it a lil more secure.
