Hi folks,
I recently found that Holly sells a low pressure regulator. In their catalog it stated that if a multiple carb setup, you would have to have a regulator for each carb. Could anyone shed some light on how critical that would be? I have an AV8 with two 94s and could mount a single unit before the fuel block under the body but I wouldn't want to mount two in the engine bay, it's just a looks thing that I'm hung up on. One other thing, can you set the pressure without a guage similar to the little round chrome ones with the pointer? That's the type I'm trying to get a replacement for since I have had two leakers  :( recently and am gunshy now. Everyone's used them for years but now............
Thanks in advance,
Jon G

Use one regulator. I ran a liquid filled gauge off the regulator. There is a hole that you can use for that since you will not be using a return line to the tank. That way you can see the gauge while you are adjusting the pressure.

Hey RumRumm,
 Thanks for the info on the holley regulator. That's exactly what I was hoping. With the hole in the unit for the guage it should work out well underneath and out of sight. I'll be ordering tomorrow!! Thanks again!!
