    So for some reason my made in 1991 Canadian spec 348 has the later 3.8 bar FRPs that from my reading are NLA
    This dude had the same problem and the same solution
    http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/348-355-sponsored-bradan/406370-348-adjustable-fuel-pressure-regulators.html

    I am going to go with this FPR
    Aeromotive Universal Bypass Regulators 13129 - Free Shipping on Orders Over $99 at Summit Racing
    It's a return style, so can I just cap the return port?
    Will that work?

    And according to the other post the fitting sizes are m14x1.5 and m16x1.5
    Which XRP makes a 6an adapter for you can see here

    Before I order something else that won't work is there anything wrong you can see here ?

    They didn't have it at the store I ordered mine from and had to order them from the national wear house. Why can't your local store have the fpr's shipped to them? It only took 4 days for my store to get them.

    Not sure why they cant get them from the US, but i called 3 local stores and they all told me the smae thing, on back order with no ETA

    I called a buffalo store, and they said the same thing as you. They can get 2 from Virginia, but i have to come in and pay so they can order, i cant pay with a CC over the phone. DOH

    I called a local performance store and they have two Aeromotive ones in stock and all the fittings i need. Except it will cost me $360 plus tax and whatever fittings i need, i might just do that so i can drive the car before the salt and snow come.

    Still better than the local ferrari dealer who wanted $500 a pop

    That's insane!

    Napa has the Echlins on sale for $64.80 each right now. $500 a pop for a fpr, what a RIP OFF!

    thanks, i think i might just go with the aftermarket stuff. If i can get eveything i need locally tommorow i am set.
    Might cost me an extra $100 or so VS going with Summit for the parts.

    I am leaning this way as well just because of how hard it has been to find an OEM style one, at least in the future i can just rebuild the Areomotive if it starts to leak.

    Has anyone ordered the 3.8bar PR298 recently?
    I'm having such a hard time finding this part in Canada. The only US shop I see that has them is Summit Racing but they're out of stock.
    Anyone can help?!

    Amazon shows them but I didn't check to see if you can actually order them.

    Do a search for "Standard PR298" using DuckDuckGo. If you're using Google it's filtering a ton of results because they want to get paid for everything they show you.

    Good luck. Hope you find them.

    However, using the eCatalog to search on a 1992 348 tb (mine :) ), it results to a PR161.

    PR161 is the wrong one, mine is threaded on both ends! Thanks for the leads, will check them once I get home.
