fpr question

I purchased a camaro from a friend with a tbi to carp swap already done. I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to set the fuel pressure regulator since I have no idea how.

You need an adjustable fuel pressure regulator, if you don't already have one. Only 2 I know of are Mallory and Barry Grant. I have the Mallory (P/N 4309).

You need the return line, which the Mallory has. Hook up the gauge and use the set screw to set the pressure.
