Webcon FPRs
T66 - 13/6/11 at 07:29 PM

Looking at these for the Blackbird Rotrex lump - I already have a GM 3 bar FPR from the Saab in the garage, do the Webcon units accept a standard FPR ?


I know the Saab one I have is the same as a lot of the Vauxhall ones, VW/Audi/Skoda etc...


Or do I go for an adjustable FPR ? - IVA compatible or not ??



My thoughts are buy a Webcon one with a 3.5 bar FPR, then I have a 3bar one as an option should I want it.

yes these accept standard bosch type fuel pressure regulators.

we like using the bosch pressure regs, lots of pressures to choose from and simple design.

sometimes the simplest option is the best one (less to go wrong!)

I made a copy of this by removing the FPR capsule from a zetec manifold and copied the bore of the manifold in a bit of ally billet then fitted the ford FPR to it , it has worked perfectly and I know it is a reliable and easily changed regulator. I didn't fancy having an E bay special with a gauge that could spring a leak under the bonnet.
