Mallory 4309 Question: 4 ports?

I have the "3 port" mallory adjustable fuel pressure regulator for my TPI to carb swap. My question is that it seems that two of the side ports will not be used, do I just plug those holes?

It seems like the feed line goes into one hole on the side, the line to the carb goes to another hole in the side, and the return goes into the bottom where it reads "bypass". What are the other two side ones used for?

nitrous, or run 2 lines to the carb, etc etc. whatever you want them to be used for, or a pressure guage, whatever.

Ah, makes sense now. See I have the edelbrock performer and theres only one fuel inlet in the carb. So I can just block the other two off then?
