I noticed that the regulator bracket that mounts to the valley at the fuel bowl location comes with 2 bolts. But the two bolts are too small in diameter. I tried using the fuel bowl old bolts but they bottom out, too long for the bracket. Did anyone experience this issue? The two bolts that the regulator came with fit where the old fuel pump mounted to. I can easily throw some nuts on the bolts to space em out but I figured I'm missing something here?

The fuel regulator doesn't go where the fuel pump was. That's where the "fuel pump replacement" fitting thing goes. That fitting doesn't regulate the pressure, just sends it to the rear of the heads with the existing banjo bolt rig from the factory fuel pump. The regulator goes towards the front of the truck from that, basically where the fuel bowl used to be. There's a little bracket that you put across the valley, and then you mount the regulator to that. The regulator governs the fuel pressure of the system by regulating the return to the tank. I posted a picture of the finished outcome in the engine bay. I'm hoping that picture helps you.
Got mine in. Need to do the electrical still though. Used existing steel braided fuel lines that routed from the head to the regulator. The kit came with a set of rubber lines but mine looked good still.
Hoping my banjo is tight enough. I couldn't get a good bite on it considering that block unit can crack. I would have prefered their pump replacement block spanned across both mounting bolts rather than just the one.
Love my Martys kit, Ive had it on for more than a couple years now, with the walbro pump(not diesel rated). Absolutley no issues, steady 55psi all the time.
Maybe just a little increase in certain situations. I wasn't expecting any more power out of this, though, really. I'm still on stock injectors and tuning and everything, though.
I started the truck with the new Marty's system and this is the reading I get on the front tank vacuum gauge. When I switch to the rear it shoots up way higher. Thinking I have the line swapped on the rear going to the tank. But the front is on the cusp of being ok? Any thoughts?
