When I bought my intake to do the TPI swap, it came with a Crane AFPR. I quit trying to fool with the Crane regualtor after about an hour with it and ordered a Holley. I've, for some reason, never been a big Holley fan, but this regulator makes adjustments so much easier.

FWIW: I think the Holley AFPR is the best on the market. However, a few people have reported problems, but mine has worked like a champ the first day I installed it. Yep, fuel pressure changes are a snap.
