Kirban FPR question
I just got my HSR installed and now my Kirban adjustable FPR shows up at my door. What is the easiest way to get this FPR installed?
Thanks

Re: Kirban FPR question
Bolt it on.... lol. I guess I don't understand the question. If you're asking about how to run the lines, this is how I did it. I cut the feed and return lines off at about the header collecter and flared them, then i put some efi grade fuel hose and hose clamps on. I ran the feed line to the passenger fuel rail, and the return line from the regulator to the metal line. Very easy but some peolpe don't like cutting up there factory lines. If you are one of these people than you have to buy special fittings to go from the hard lines to an fittings and plum it in from there. I hope thats what you meant.

Re: Kirban FPR question
I'm running braided fuel lines from the hard frame rail lines so all my hose ends are AN (Russels fittings). BUT, my intake was already on the car when I ordered my Kirban. I opened the gas cap to relieve any pressure, unbolted the FPR hose, used a rag to collect all the spilling fuel of course.
Once it drains, you can use an allen key to unbolt the FPR. Take the swivel AN fitting I'll call it off the Holley FPR and put it on your Kirban. I mounted the Kirban with the AN fitting pointing towards the distributor. The only thing I had to remove to do this swap was the Holley FPR and the DS valve cover. This fits and works fine even with my Dart tall aluminum valve coveres.
Good luck.

Re: Kirban FPR question
I did not put my Kirban on yet but i did get my fuel pressure gauge installed off the rail. When i turned the key and primed, pressure went up to about 20-25psi and when i started the car she sat right on 43 psi.
