[FC] RE: fuel pump

[Diane Galli]

Not having an AutoZone in the area, I had to settle for $47.00 at Kragen.
Did you use a regulator, or just straight. I have not installed this yet,
what kind of pressure should I be looking for. The clicker I am replacing
shows 2PSI at the carbs, no wonder it would starve out.
