Matt - Honestly, I don't think an aftermarket one is needed. The problem with going to an aftermarket AFPR is that they aren't exactly easy to hook into our fuel system. Just make sure you have enough injector and fuel pump and I think you'll be fine.

i see...i need to get some injectors that are big enough for my setup but are direct replacments for the truck injectors unlike the SVOs that require splicing spacing etc.

Matt - If you go with a direct fit injector or LS1 style injector is up to you, just make sure whatever you go with is big enough to support whatever type of power you plan on making.

Matt, I would but, I JUST found out it's pouring down rain outside and now my seats are nice and wet since my windows were down.

blownchevy - Is this what you're talking about?

<a href="http://www.corvettemagazine.com/2003/january/newproducts/np1-1-3rd.asp" target="_blank"><font color="red">TPIS LS1 Fuel Pressure Regulator<!--color--></font></a>

If so it's a nice piece but, isn't manifold referenced so it wouldn't work with our trucks unless you reprogrammed the computer to work with it.(not worth it) We have a better setup anyway, especially for blown applications.
Yes that is the one I am talking about.....The Radix kit uses the stock FPR and I was looking into changing for an adjustable one...

Are you going to modify the Magnacharger regulator housing or adapt the TPS regulator to fit the rail,I guess if the TPS regulator will fit the rail it should work.Are you seeing a lean condition.
