Default Holley Regulator??

I'm Thinking About Ditching My Adjustable Reg With The Screw Top And Getting The Holley With The Dial. For People That Do Have This Is It As Easy As It Looks??

I jerked my Accel AFPR off and installed the new Holley unit two week ago. Taking about an improvement (AFPR wise)....WOW! It works as easy at it looks!

Anyone interested in a POS Accel APFR?

BTW, I found that Advance Auto has the best price unless you have an "inside track" on such parts! It is not stocked, but can be ordered and delivered in 2 - 3 days. I think it cost me $77 plus the governors $ in the St. Louis area!

I bought one from Jegs about a month ago and out it on. It is as easy as it looks except on my 91' (guessing thats what you have) I had to grind/shave on the bottom of my plenum for the big dial to clear, but still wasn't no biggy.

Oh, and be sure to have a tamper proof torx bit the right size,(I think it is a #10 but not positive) or you will be wasting your time.
