Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator...again

I wanted to add an adjustable fuel press. reg. to my fuel rail in place of the one I have now. South Florida Pulley has one for sale but its $159. I have read that you need one for a GM 3.8L. Is this something you can buy over the counter at an autoparts store and what vehicle would you puchase this for?

HI!... My "99" F-150 came with a welded on NON adjustable FPR. I got a fuel rail off a "98" F-150 which has a bolt on NON adjustable FPR. I just unbolted the NON adjustable FORD FPR and bought a AREOMOTIVE billet adjustable FPR.

Terry's (SFPH) is a Corvette Fuel Regulator (I forgot what year sorry....)

Or you can use the Accufab Boost Sensitive Fuel Regulator too
(had that on the 02) and also on the 00 now

The lower half is part of the rail, but the regulator itself is held in with a snap ring. The one he's asking about is a drop in replacement for the 99-up rail, so you don't have to buy the early rail setup.
