Those with Sterling carbs...
Those of you with Sterling carbs, what fuel pump and fuel pressure regualtor do you have? and how much did they cost? I may be getting a Sterling but I don't know what to get for fuel delivery. I all ready asked Sterling himself, but I'd like to hear what you guys have. Be as specific as you can plz. Thank you.

I use a weber pump and holley regulator. I don't think it really matters which high volume pump you use, it really all depends on being able to regulate the fuel inlet psi to properly feed the carb.
Get a good gauge and regulator, IMO.

you also have to think about if you would like to go efi or turbo down the road.
a good efi pump can go both ways with the correct FPR. but a carb pump can't.
my pump is for a carb and has a 18-20 psi limit so i can still turbo.

Well I didn't end up with a sterling carb, but I just bought a Carter P4070 electric fuel pump today for a Mikuni 44PHH setup. Cost me 80 something from O'reilly's Auto Parts.
