Fuel pressure questions 92' 5.0 TPI

I hate having to make a thread for this but hopfuly it's an easy question.

The car has a very slight stumble at high RPMs and I think my pump may be going out based on the pressure readings.
At the rail -
Key to on - pump primes to 39psi
At idle - roughly 32-34psi
With the FPR disconnected - 42psi

Based on what I've read these all seem to be low readings... correct?

That's the low side of normal but I wouldn't flag it as a problem.
