Default Modding the Stock FPR

Has anyone modded their stock LT1 Fuel Pressure Regular to increase it's pressure output? Could save me $80 for the Accel model.

I recall some guys did that to their L98 FPRs by installing a washer/shim but haven't come across anything on the LT1 version.

Thanks,

Jake

The one that tpis uses for the mini-ram is a lt-1 frp. The only difference to make it adjustable was they cut the top part off the fpr to fit the cap with screw, they add a shim and use a type of band clamp. You could buy just those parts from them and mod yours.

Thanks for that. I've got a spare one; maybe I'll play around with it since apparently no fuel flows in the adjustment area. Won't have to worry about leaks.

If I run into anything I'll get back to you.
