  • Need to raise fuel pressure

    i have a 88 2.8 blazer and im thinking about doing my first 2.8-3.1 swap. Is the fuel pressure regulator on the throttle body? I would like to raise the pressure to accomodate the 3.1, do i need an adjustable regulator? Thanks, Brian

    im not sure but i think u might have to get a bigger fuel pump, and maybe an adjustable fuel pressure reg, but like i said im not sure ive never messed around with TBI

      iirc the fuel pressure is the same for the 2.8 and 3.1.

        You may need to adjust it. Good news is it is easy and low cost. Read here http://members.shaw.ca/betterthanyou...to/fpr/fpr.htm
