I run almost 7 PSI on my carb, but my engine probably requires a bit more fuel than yours does. Start of small, around 4 PSI atleast, and work your way up until you loose any bogging or have problems at your upper RPMs. Make sure you have a simple regulator and a accurate PSI guage

Wait he needs 8 PSI or thats what the TBI pump pumps??
