i heard/read that fuel pressure regulators should be located as close as possible to the carb. If so, why? And, how close is close? Is the firewall good? Fender? Or right on the intake?
a) If on the intake, then could i get some mounting ideas?
b) Also, could i get some good gauge ideas? i'd prefer one inside the cab(electric of course), but i'll mount a mechanical on the wiper cowl if necessary, because i don't have a whole lot of time.
c) The carb is a quadrajet, if that matters. Really, i'm just trying to make sure i don't go above 6.5lbs., but really 4 would be ok.
d) i heard/read return lines should be at least at big as the main line. Why? i think with most gm carbureted cars, the return line is smaller than the main.
