41-47psi w/ vac hose of, that's what it is for my 350, not totally pos. on the 305tpi? As if you were to put a cam in it possibly upsize the injectors all depends on type of came and how muuch fuel the engine wants, but just runners no.

40 - 47.5 psi vacuum line off. the only way to adjust is by getting an adjustable fuel pressure regulator. by increasing pressure to 52 psi will make the injectors change to a flow of 22#/hr
