Okay.

Street DeMon 625 stats call for between 5 and 6 PSI. I just wanted to get a piump that allows me to "throttle back" the fuel pressure
using the fuel pressure regulator so I can fine tune the flow.

I seem to getting lean "pops" after being into the secondaries for a few seconds (). Of course, there are a ton of reasons for
that symptom. Most of which, I've checked out.

Just wanted to make sure the bowl wasn't empty. And, since I get some readings in the four psi range (with a clear shot...new fuel
filter, blown out carb filters, timing adjustments, air leak checks, etc.), I'm just interested in eliminating this factor.

It's no big deal. The old 350 runs strong....with a little pop once in a while...like I said...But I don't like to leave "almost well
enough" alone.
