Fuel Pressure Regulator

In need of a new fuel pressure regulator, just gonna go with an adjustable one, not running anything high end just gonna need the normal fuel pressure....which brand should I go with?

Also I need to run new fuel lines, should I just get them from GM?

I've been running a TPIS AFPR for the last 50K miles with no problems. My buddy ran an Aeromotive and it failed right away.

Fuel lines are a GM part only unless you're looking to do a custom job.

I would go with a stocker. No need for an AFPR.
