Just ordered BBK's fuel pressure regulator. My factory regulator has the allen screws on the underside of the regulator....is the upper intake gonna have to come off or is it possible to R&R the regulator with the intake on? looks like a pain in the arse...alot of stuff in the way

To me the regulator is a big ******. Take the upper intake off to give yourself some room...grab a lot of patience....or a bunch of alcohol...I i had my way those regulators could all just go die in a fire somewhere lol

(sorry the last car i bought had all 3 bolts stripped...so i hate hate hate doing the regulator now )

Yeah it's a pain in the butt wit the intake on. Even with the spacer on, but not impossible. I want to move mine to the fender someday.
