Fuel pressure regulator ? for TBI to carb swap
Im doin the swap from TBI to carb and I read all the tech sections and I have one question about the regulator. They say use the Mallory 3 port return style (MAA-4309). It says in the summit book that those are for fuel injected motors ajustable from 30-100psi. How am I gonna regulate that down to 5psi for the carb? THANKS

This is what I see (emphasis added):
"This 3-port return-style fuel pressure regulator is designed to regulate fuel pressure between high pressure fuel pumps and carburetors or fuel injection systems. The total adjustable range of the regulator is 3-12 psi. The bypass port sends the excess pressure back to the fuel tank. Returning the fuel back to the tank benefits the pump by running cooler, drawing less current, and always having full volume output available at the desired pressure setting."
