this is my setup, holley blue and holley fpr, ive searched but didnt find any info on the restricter check valve and cant tell from the pics i saw in the archived threads if they still have the valve in place.

the problem im having is the fuel preasure keeps wanting to climb up to around 10-12 psi on my gauge

Holleys do not have return lines unless you are using a return style fpr. If so, then remove the restrictor.
