Exclamation Custom fuel system install pictures needed

I just got a Lonnie's Performance fuel system and would like to see some pictures of installs you guys have done. Like fuel pressure regulator placement, where you ran your fuel lines, etc. I need some ideas on how to do it. Thanks guys.

Do you mind posting a picture of the bucket you got back from him? Kind of curious...

Here's something you could duplicate on any intake.
It's simple, fuel comes into one side, crosses over to the other side, gets regulated, then take a return line to the tank.

So in the rear of Passenger fuel rail, crossover to driver's, and through regulator. Does the regulator need to be mounted that close to rail or can
I remote mount it closer to brake booster?

One thing I like to do when routing a fuel system is pressurize the fuel rails first, then regulate it. It always works out better, whether it be dual feeds or a Y block, get fuel to the rails first.
As for your question, no. It doesn't need to be that close, you can mount it on the firewall or down on the frame, whatever is easy for your setup.

So I need a y-block? I guess Lonnie's kit is setup to run single feed line in.
