Default Aeromotive A1000-6 Injected Bypass Regulator Install??

I received one of these fuel pressure regulators for Christmas.

It has -AN fittings for the inlet & outlet, and I'm not sure how I would go about installing it. Are there adapters that go from the factory lines on my '98 Civic to the -AN fittings?

I know I really don't need an FPR on my setup, but I definitely want to use it.

Suggestions?

You can drill and tap the stock fuel rail to plug the stock FPR port and open up a 3/8" NPT port to use a 3/8" NPT to -6AN flare adapter on the end of the fuel rail.

Or, you can buy an aftermarket fuel rail with a port already machined in to the end of it. It'll either be a -8AN boss or a -6AN boss. Use the appropriately sized AN o-ring adapter to convert to -6AN flare.

Buy two -6AN o-ring to -6AN flare adapters, and install them on the FPR. Buy a fuel pressure gauge with a 1/8" male NPT port on the back of it. Install it on the FPR.

Buy some -6AN hose and hose-ends, put everything together. You'll probably end up spending another $200 if you buy a new fuel rail.
