Bbk Fuel Press Regulator

Does anyone here run a BBK fuel press reg. on a 350 TPI? if so please post a picture of what it looks like hooked up on your car. I am havin a really hard time hookin it up on my car .I followed the directions and the set screw stuck out so far that when I put my plenum back on, the top of the screw touched the base and then I tried tighten it down some more then you guessed it I twisted the screw off into the regulator and ended up bending the diaphram spring shaft so now I need to go buy another This is really So if one of you F body wizzards could help me out I would really be greatful. Thanx.

Welcome to the club. I don't have a picture but that is precisely what happened to me. I'm not happy with the fact that my plenum now has some metal ground out of the bottom of it. Thanks for reminding me.

As soon as I put my BBK reg on I noticed that the bolt will touch the plenum.

So I found another shorter bolt and put it on and had no problems since.

Too bad that when you buy a product that it has to be modified like that but oh well, it works now.
