Im replacing a tbi set up with a carb, and need to know if there is a fuel pressure regulator that I can get to lower the pressure for the carb, since the efi fuel pump has more psi then a ole style fuel pump.

Or what other options do you prefer????

i've done 3 TBI to carb conversions. all 3 i didn't use any type of regulator. i simply used a t fitting with 1 line coming in from the pump another going to the carb and the 3rd going back to the return. i put a pressure gauge on the carb side and it showed around 6 psi. the pressure difference is so small the carb can handle it. i've been running this setup for 3 years now on my camaro and haven't had any carb trouble from flooding or blowing out needle and seat.

I found a inline electric fuel pump at summit raceing on there website 4-7 psi, part # mrg12s $39.95

i had taken out the fuel pump in the tank and put a longer hose with filter at the bottom and i installed electric fuel pump along the fuel line works great for me  but sound like kodiak s route is much easier
