    Fuel Pressure

     



    What pressure should I be reading at my fuel pressure cage, I have heard that it should be at around 7, I have a Holley 110 gph mechanical fuel pump, 5/8" line from fuel cell to fuel pump, and 3/8" from pump to carb. I have a duel feed holley 4150.

    Thanks for taking the time to answer, car is used mostly for crusing, and every once and awhile a 1/4 mile pass, are there any easy things to check to make sure I am getting enough flow, I recently changed from a 80gph pump, to a 110 gph with only a slight change in pressure.

    Depending on the pump your presure will stay about the same but your volumn will go up.
