Good non return fuel pressure regulator?

The Carter mechanical fuel pump won't keep up with my new 358. I went to use an old Holley that I don't think I ever used. The 63 psi 350 LPH in tank pump pushed it to 15 psi on the lowest setting. Looking for good regulator that doesn't cost a fortune. Thanks in advance. Here is how I set up the 20 year old Holley regulator.

Basically looking at the Holley, AEM and Spectre which looks identical to the AEM but slightly cheaper. All the same style as the one I just installed.

Maybe put another one in series to drop the 15 psi down to a carburetor friendly level?

The Quickfuel 30-803 seems to rated the best out of those style regulators and will be here early next week, around $100.

That might not be worst idea. This one dropped it some, this pump is regulated a 62-63 psi just not dropping it enough for my Qjet.
