Obstruction with AFPR?
After installing my Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator, when I went to put the plenum on, there is a problem.
The plenum hits on the top edge of the can on the AFPR.
As this can is aluminum, did you just file (radius) the edge a little to obtain clearance?
Perhaps yours already had a radius on this upper edge?
Just wondering what others have done, or did they even have this problem?
Can post a picture if you need one due to my poor description of problem.

You must have the Holley AFPR.
I also had this problem with the adjustement **** on the regulator hitting the back edge of the plenum. I took a dremel too the plenum to give it some extra clearance.
Take a dremel to the plenum and you should be fine.

My Holley just clears. I adjusted fuel pressure before I installed plenum. Maybe once you have adjusted it, there will be clearance. Mine is set for 43lbs with no vacuum and I have about 3/32" clearance.
