weaker spring set to 19 lbs with vac line attached it goes to 14 lbs. size of cam may affect. mine is 224/230 @ .05 114 LSA. I expected it to drop lower.
Yeah, I understand the effects of a lumpier cam. Mine has a 114 LSA also.
When I first switched to an external regulator, I had used one of the square looking Aeromotive units. The engine was smaller and had a cam with 110 LSA. It seems I was getting roughly 8 psi spread, but I could be wrong.
Currently am getting 6 psi spread. Guess I'll try one of the 13301's and see what happens.

If you have or have acess to a Mity-Vac pump some testing may be donw with it. Engine off, hot wire the pump on. Connect the Mity-vac to the FPR vac line. Then pump to 5" vac, check fuel pressure, then to 10" vac, read fuel pressure, and so on until at 25 - 30 " vac.
There should be a 1:1 change in fuel pressure to vacuum (converted for the proper units).
1 psi = 2.036 inches vacuum Hg
So at 10" of vacuum the fuel pressure should be lower by 4.9 psi
