if all goes well and I can get it retuned and get new headers I should be able to start testing soon.

What? The pump feeds the regulator, and the outlet of the regulator feeds the rails? You can't do that.

heres what im sayin, halo has his setup "feed to fpr(with return on bottom) to y to the rails with a crossover in front". heres a link https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...d.php?t=438325
which u posted in also which has thunder550 setup which has the feed to a y to both rails with the fpr on the crossover in the front with the return off of it(which would be after the rails).. hes says it doesnt matter..? i was told to have it last after everything, so whats the skippy, does it not really matter??

edit: the more i think about it with aftermarket ones it might not matter. iirc all the stock fpr ive seen are at the end, havent looked on my GMtruck because its still new too me, jus came over from the dodge side..

it is real simple, I have the main feed line going in to the regulator, return on the bottom and the out to the y in the picture. I know dirt track racer 81 has his mounted in a like way but he is not using a y. Many members have the fpr in the same set up, and a few are run like thunder550's. The returnless system has it in the tank so I figure it really does not matter. My truck is running fine now that I got the maf hooked up straight to the tb.

the results will not be provided via number until middle may on the track. The only down side is I am swaping gears as well. I will be running the truck on the street once I can get some help tunning for the injectors and bigger TB. Funds are limiting my ability to provide numbers sooner. The truck is in need of a few things before I can provide any data. Sorry to disapoint. Ike destroyed my life and I am slowly getting it back. I will have a back street run soon

sorry to hear, wasnt sayin get to the dyno, you should be able to tell what differences there are by the back street runs and tuning. plus ur the first to do it so everyone else can see what goes along with this intake.
