bypass regulator pics

anyone got pics of their bypass style regulator installed? Looking for ideas on how I'm going to run the lines and mount the regulator.

I'm using an aeromotive bypass regulator, works great for my setup. This pic shows it pretty well. I had a sump welded on the stock tank and a 6AN bung welded near the top of the tank for the return. The fuel lines are ran just outside of the trans tunnel on the passenger side...almost the same route as the factory exhaust. I can take some pics of it later if you want to see that.

Nice looking setup there. Looks like you've got the regulator before the carb? I'm debating on wether or not I want to run new lines from the tank and make a whole new system, or use the stock lines and adapt them to AN and use an in tank pump. I like the idea of mounting the regulator on the firewall where the heater box used to be.

Yea I have the regulator before the carb. The decision of whether to use the stock lines and adapt them to AN or run all new lines just depends on how much power you plan on making. It saves a lot of effort and money to just adapt the stock lines. I wanted peace of mind to know that my lines were big enough. I'm starting to make enough power to where 3/8 lines were getting marginal..along with the carter fuel pump I was using.
