Default How to mount regulator on fuel rail (Holley Hi-ram)

For those of you running the Holley Hi-ram, how do you have your regulator mounted and routed? I just got mine installed, and I do not like how the shop mounted and routed the regulator. Plus I need to fix the kinked return line that they installed I was wanting to mount the regulator on the passenger side fuel rail and then run the return line under the intake, but I couldn't find an adapter fitting on Earls website that would seem to work. So...what did you all do? This is a NNBS converted to a return style fuel system to BTW

PM me if your really interested. I don't want to bad mouth any shops around here. I mean its not bad work but I just feel like they didn't take the time to think how to properly route everything.

Mine is mounted similar to George's except on the front of the rail using an earl's -8 male orb to -8 male orb swivel, and there is also an aluminum bracket that runs from the regulator to the fuel rail mounting boss's to keep the regulator supported and keep it from spinning. Some pictures can be seen in my garage/album on here.
