Fuel question?

What fuel pressure would I need to have on a 350 with a 750 carb making about 420 HP? I would like to get away from my mechanical fuel pump

7 Psi at idle

FWIW - a good mechanical pump is one of the best, simplest, long lasting items we can put onto a motor.
Simple abd Effective

Re: Fuel question?

getting a new mechanical pump and cleaning your gas tank is a great way to go
