Weldon Racing Pumps, makers of high-end EFI fuel pumps and regulators that are used by Mustang racers throughout the Fox-to-present Mustang community, sent us the latest word on their newest product--for carbureted applications.

What makes the A2046 tick? Here's a look at all of the critical internal pieces. Not much too this one, but we think it will do well for carbureted Fords.

Weldon's latest development is this sano, CNC-machined, aluminum high-volume fuel pressure regulator for carbureted applications (PN A2046). It's a blocking-style (non-return; no bypass; designed to work with one of Weldon's electric fuel pumps and in conjunction with a pressure-relief valve) regulator, so we wouldn't suggest using it with a nitrous or forced-induction setup. However, we're pretty sure it will do good things for an all-motor 'Stang or other Ford.

The new regulator provides for using one, two, or four outlets (AN -6 ports), and serves single or multiple carburetors. During extreme tests, Weldon found the new valve assembly and reservoir flows almost 7 gallons-per-minute at 40 psi with little or no pressure fluctuation. Smooth, precise fuel metering means faster recovery times, less fuel-pressure creep, fewer disturbances within the fuel bowls and, therefore, less aeration. By removing much of the chaos in the fuel delivery system, the Weldon A2046 promotes better atomization when the fuel reaches the carburetor boost venturii.
