Any recommendations? For the New Yorker. 440, 4bbl carter, 3/8" line, carter elec fuel pump rated at 6psi. The carb really wants ~4psi, so an adjustable pressure regulator in the 3-6psi region will work. Tried all the local stores. AutoZone had one for $25 bucks made by Spectre that was junk, worked great for 1 fire up, then shut off/stuck closed and we couldn't get it to work again and returned it.

Holley 12-803BP 4.5-9 psi Here is the site with other holley regulator options available. Holley regulators You should be able to get these thru your local parts store that can get hipo stuff. I believe the first one has: one input and 2 outputs. I put an elbow on one of the outlets and screwed in a small pressure gauge. It works great, had it on there for a few years now.
