I have the BPP, and I can only get a min of 43psi. For me that sucks, as sometimes depending on the weather at the strip (high DA) I can't adjust it down to lean it out.


Holley have probably the nicest one I have seen, and if I every buy another it will be that. It has a **** that can be adjusted with your fingers, VERY Nice.

And you can completely shut the fuel off with it = 0psi if you like. That is the adjustability I like to have!

Holley without a doubt. You also get a new diaphram with it. :yesnod: The thumbwheel is great. Its tight enough so that it won't move on its own, but its still easy enough to move with your fingers.

I am interested in a Holly adjustable fuel pressure regulator. How much do they cost and where can I buy one for a L98?

I have the TPIS, but you have to use your own diaphram. I vote Holley (like scorp said - it comes with new diaphram). Check out the mail order places - Summit or Jegs (I prefer Jeg's). :seeya

Chucks88,
Mind if I ask where you purchased your regulator. The Holleys that I find on the WEB don't appear to be the same as yours. I really like the looks of the one you have and it looks like it is easier to adjust than my BPP.

I know this might be a little off topic, but I saw ski dwn it, write "the min I can adjust is 43psi with BPP"

what is the max and min with the Holley?

It all depends on the fuel pump, but I know my holley can go over 50psi. I don't know how low, never had a reason to try.
