No fuel pressure

Nothing like leaving things to the last minute, the car has been in bits for the last 2 years. I got it back from being painted a week and half ago. So it's now back together with 1 week to to Shelby Fest and it won't start.

I have replaced all fuel lines installed new fuel pump etc. When I turn it over it gets fuel through the fuel rails and have I spark but there is no fuel pressure showing up on the fuel regulator gauge.

Not sure where to go from here, I was wondering wether to take the fuel tank out and change the fuel pump back to the old one because that use to work, the new pump works but as I said I can' seem to get any fuel pressure.

Any suggestion

Thanks

Rod

If it is an inline Fuel reg - have you got it around the wrong way and it is just bleeding pressure all the time??? or Wrong connection oreientation? (I am assuming you have an external regulator?)

Looking forward to seeing another CR at ShelbyFest.

As long as it is being switched by the PCM, and the pump IS working, I'd be chasing the fuel reg.
How and where have you fitted it?
