I need some one to explain something to me. I was looking at the diagram on Pelican and something didn’t seem right. If you follow the “Flow” arrows you don’t reduce the fuel pressure until after it goes to the injectors. Shouldn’t the fuel pressure regulator get the higher pressure fuel from the pump before the injectors? Maybe I don’t fully understand, but it just doesn’t make since to me.
I’m redoing all the fuel lines in my car (was carbs, but going back to FI) and need to know if the Pelican diagram is correct. Help please!!! Thanks, Mike Attached image(s)

i think the diagram is correct. the high pressure line ("D" for Druck on the fuel pump, i think the middle port) from the fuel pump goes to the injectors and then to the pressure regulator. the pressure regulator "bleeds off" the excess pressure back to the fuel tank (the return line)
