AFPR for Holley Stealthram..where to buy?

Where can I get an aftermarket Adjustable Fuel pressure regulator for the my stealthram?..that will mount in the same location?

Does Areomotive make one?

I may be mistaken, but doesn't Holley make the only AFPR for their own StealthRam?

I have done a search and the link to an aftermarket AFPR doesnt work anymore...I saw a picture of one and it also had a fuel pressure gauge on it.......that would be nice!

Kirban has a nice one (part 6547) that has worked great on my setup. About $100.
Welcome to Kirban Performance Products
Doesn't have a gauge on it but it does mount in the same location.
It is adjustable without removing the vac line.
The Holley one has given many people problems.

i thought I read somewhere that any FPR for a grand national will work on the HSR. I might be wrong though. Either way, I vote for the Kirban.

It does work from what I've read but its not adjustable and the pressure setting is lower than 43. Don't recall exactly but it was enough to sway me to just buy the Kirban.
Glad I did, have had no problems since installed (fuel related anyway)

Yep, that was enough to sway me away from it.
Thanks for posting that info.

Yah. I've had MAJOR problems with the Holley adjustible regulator. First one I had, went to the race track which is 1.5hrs away. After my first race I noticed the car idling rough. Looked under the hood and the clear vacuum line from the FPR to the intake had a steady stream of fuel going through it!
Had it replaced under warrenty
Went to the track
Same thing happened again! Regulator was set at 43.5 both times.
Needless to say it's not fun trying to drive the car when its getting that much fuel.
I didn't have time to wait for the Kirban so I picked up a gn regulator.
I need to pick up the Kirban regulator now because injector duty cycle is wayyyy to high at 90%~

Look in www.gmhighperformance.com, they have an article about HSR placed on a IROC. It says they used Aeromotive Reg...
