Adjustable fuel pressure reg
 
So I am putting an adjustable fpr on my 305 and I heard it should be at the end of the system but the return line isn’t pressurized. Can I just install a double feed to my tbi and not have a return on the tbi but have it running off of my fpr? Would this be ok

Any reason why you need an adjustable regulator on this set-up? I would not dead head the pump without a proper return.

As long as you have some form of return line in your set-up you'll be fine. By dead head I mean nowhere for the excess fuel to go (return line), its just builds in the main line and makes the fuel pump work harder.

WHY do you need an aftermarket fuel pressure regulator? What's wrong with the one you already have, built-into the TBI unit?
