Unfortunately, that isn't the Allante regulator. Much different, not even close. Here is a pic of the Allante regulator.

That is the exact problem I had trying to source a regulator a while back. The pictured regulator is not what is on the Allante rail but all part numbers point like it is.

This is what I am working on for the Allante adjustable regulator.

This is what I have come up with for an adjustable fuel pressure regulator for the Allante 4.5 engine. I will test in the next couple of days.

What do you have on the inlet? Compression fitting on the factory tubing? or Bundy adapter?

For the inlet, have you thought about making a fitting that would plug into the fuel rail, but then just have female 1/4" pipe threads? It could be turned in a single setup on a lathe, then oriented the direction the added fitting would need to go.
