After a chat with Shawn tonight, he gave me a great idea that honestly I had never thought of. It worked so easily and great that I am going to post this up for some of the young guys or anybody that has not thought of this before. I needed to empty all of the gas from my gas tank in order to exchange with E-85. I am going for emissions this weekend and don't want a mixture but there are many reasons for needing to drain the tank such as a fuel pump replacement. Anyway so not much to the procedure: Disconnect fuel line to regulator. Attach a long length of hose to regulator and insert into gas can or into one of your other cars. Remove DME relay Jump 30, 87, & 87B You will here it when it is done, noise from fuel pump increases dramatically.

Frist of all - that's the fuel pressure regulator not the damper.
If you took the input line to the damper you would get more fuel flow.
All the rest is good!

Chris: Thanks! That's what I get posting at midnight after a 14 hour day at work! 
I meant to use that line, but could not find an adaptor. This way worked and was simpler on my car as it was just a hose clamp.
