FP regulator leaking

Just dropped a 351W in my 93 and I noticed that the fuel pressure regulator is leaking. Anyway to remove the FPR without taking the whole upper intake off? (I have a cobra upper)

Yes it can be done but you must have patience. My reg on my 90 was allowing 44 presure and I put on a Kirban adj. I took the throttle cables and bracket off and EGR valve. Found a short allen wrench and short turn at a time. BE very carful putting the screws back in make sure they are all started and turn freely. In hindsight it probably would have taken as much time and been easier to take top of intake off.
