1. 14-18 Hg, depending on porting, May be a bit higher with good compression. My 1/2 bp with 120psi after the rebuild pulls 8-9 Hg due to the overlap.

2. Can't help there.

3. 60 amp minumum, depending on added accs and alt upgrades.

What sort of plugs are you running? All standard rotary plugs don't require gapping.
