Fuel regulator suggestion
 

I currently have a Holley black pump and the standard Holley regulator. I have a Quadrajet carburetor. The pump seems fine , but what would y’all suggest for an upgrade on the regulator?

Just remember the more surface area the regulator has the smoother the regulator will bee.

I have a similar set up as you do. I have a Magnafuel 2 port regulator on my car right now. It works good. That being said I hear the the Product Engineering bypass regulator is supposed to be a big improvement for the Q jets, So if you plan to upgrade you might take a look at the Product Engineering regulator.

I have run my same setup for years with no issues, but now I have the same motor in a heavier car with fresh air induction opposed to a lighter car with a flat hood. I now seem to have a fuel supply issue. I am hoping to get some more flow with a larger-better-less restrictive regulator. The Holley is 3/8 in and out, not sure if I should go 1/2 in 3/8 out or 1/2 in and out.

Jeff: We have Aeromotive on my Olds and my son's Camaro. His is a bypass and mine's a deadhead style. With a Q-jet, I run -10 from the cell to the regulator and -8 from the regulator to the carb. If I had to do it all over again, I would consider the Product Engineering unit for Q-Jet like Mike suggested.

Jim, I am glad you replied. We have the exact same combo. Did you ever run the standard Holley regulator and did you ever have any fuel issues with that setup?

I run a Holley regulator on most of my stockers.
Cheap and easy to service when needed. Never
had fuel deliver issues. Better than I can say for my full
Aeromotive setup on the Superstocker! It drops from 6.5
to 3 in the last few hundred feet no matter what I change on it!

I believe I have a brand new automotive 2 port regulator. Can check on saturday

Re: Fuel regulator suggestion
 

Good morning to all,
A few seasons back I switched to a Magna Fuel pump and the Bigger Holley Regulator, I think the part number is #704 and it has a green colored diaphragm which is alcohol resistant. I have 5/8" fuel line from tank to regulator and 1/2" from regulator to carb ( Q-Jet). Checking fuel flow at the carb fitting I can pump 2 gallons of fuel in 30 seconds set at 6 lbs. of pressure. I hope that helps, the bigger regulator has larger diameter orifices internally which should help for fuel flow.
This is probably over kill in my stocker but might help your combination.
Have a Good Day.

Respectfully,

What is your pressure befor regulator? You need 7.5 lb of pressure per G’s of acceleration just move the fuel to the regulator!
