Hey guys
I just installed a new 750 Holley on my 350.  I also installed a high proformance Holley Mechanical fuel pump.  The question I got is what should be the correct fuel pressure?  I think maybe I flooding the carb now.  It barely idles and the proformance is bad.  I been thinking maybe running down to auto zone a pick up a regulator.  What do ya think??
Thanks johnny

6 to 7 psi should be plenty.
