I have a 88 gt with a Edel intake, they mount onto the back of the fuel rail just like the stock regulator, if you look at the engine straight on it will be on the back passenger side close to the firewall on the back of the fuel rail. Just take off your old one and install the new one with a new gasket that should come with the Reg, its like 1-2-3 man, hope I helped ya

I can't stop stareing, Oh baby. I wanna get wit cha. OH sorry the avatar had me in a trance.

I think schwindty pretty much summed it up on where it is located. As for performance, it really just helps regulate high pressure fuel pumps for S/C engines and others that require more fuel then normal.

If you have alot of bolt ons I would say it would be worth buying. Do you have a high flow fuel pump? 190lph or better? Bigger injectors?


I hope an Admin doesn't reem you for that avatar.
