my 6903 carter pushed out 15psi and flooded my new stroker so i was wondering if anyone could recommend a good fuel pump that doesn't need a regulator or do i now need to add that to my system? right now i am using my old 440's stock pump which puts out 3.5 psi at idle. all i have is a gauge at the carb so i can't tell what it's doing while driving. i'm rather pi$$ed right now

For that you could use a Holley... whats the flow
on that pump

thats supposed to be a 6lb pump. take the pump apart and look for something wrong. i have carter 4862 high pressure that does 9lbs and will pump well over a gallon in 60 seconds.

I've used both w/o issue. But I think the Holley pump is a better product. You can also adjust the inlet and outlet.
