I'm not familiar with the stock rails on that car, but if they're a deadhead setup (meaning there's only an "in" and no "out") and you're wanting a return style system, your best bet would be to use the 51502 or 53501. Both of those regulators are dual inlet, but can be configured as an inlet, outlet, and return. Send fuel into one side of the regulator and out the other side to the rail(s). The fitting on the bottom of the regulator would be your return fuel back to the tank.
If the rails are set up for a return style system (Inlets and outlets), I would prefer to see the regulator after the rails. Using one of the same part numbers I mentioned above, I would feed fuel up to the engine and use a "Y" block to feed both rails and then come out of each rail to each of the two inlets on the regulator. Once again, the bottom fitting would be the return port.

Hi, the fuelab has 3 ports normally but for ease you only need run 2 and have the other blanked. If you don't already have the fuel rail adaptor to replace your original reg then you'll need to get one, it's a bit fiddly to fit, easier if things are out the way! Then a hose from that to the side of the reg and a return hose on bottom of reg to original return near the fuel filter. The rail adaptor goes on the end of the rear drivers side rail and the reg then sits in the return line basically. You'll also have to run the thin vacuum pipe pipe from original reg to the fuelab. Plenty of pics if you search.
