Re: Fuel Pressure
5-7 depending on the carb.
And you HAVE to use a return-style regulator - there's no other way - if it doesn't state return style, it isn't (and if it cost less than $80 new, it isn't).

Because the in-tank electric fuel pump needs constant flow through it to keep it cool. A dead-head reg will kill the pump eventually.
