    What is to say that if I get a Walbro 255 that it won't just rip apart the new lines I just got for the fuel system though? Is the FPR going to somehow govern it so that it won't just force max pressure at all times?

    needs to be in this order.

    pump, out the tank, into the vette filter/regulator part, return goes back to the tank and the feed line goes to the fuel rail.
    or, if you have two fuel lines, pump, out the tank, into the 3/8" inch line, then back out the 5/16" line and to the tank.
    the regulator will take care of the fuel pressure going to the engine.

    if you lines are tight and you use high pressure fuel injection line, it won't blow apart.

    Okay, sort of makes sense.

    I still have no idea what a vette filter/regulator part is. Pictures are worth 1,000 words and I haven't seen any in a few Google searches or on this board.
