Just like with fuel pumps and starters etc. the regulators are supposed to be coast guard approved. I'm not sure what the difference is, but depending on the configuration you're looking for you won't have nearly as broad a selection.

Generally marine equipment such as fuel pumps etc. have a vent/overflow tube that runs back in to the induction system that supposedly keeps raw fuel from spilling into the bilge.

To the hijacker you will need a switching valve to go from tank to tank, efi pump, boost referenced regulator a but load of fittings and hose.
