Fuel pressure?
12a streetport, 47 OER sidedraft, gt35R (turblown Stage V), will be running 15 psi, intercooled, blowthrough. What fuel pressure should i be starting out at at an idle and what do i set the pressure gain at on a rising rate FPR? What pressure and flow rate fuel pump do i need?
Thanks
Thanks

This is a good setup:

Complete A1000 System for single carb (includes: 11101 Pump, 13204 Reg, lines etc.), P/N 17242
Just make sure you connect the pressure source on the fuel pressure regulator to the carb hat( positive pressure only) and not the intake manifold ( like an EFI application). You just don't want the regulator to see vacuum.
Here is the regulator only

Well if it increases fuel pressure as boost increases ( which is refreced from the carb hat/plenum) it will never recieve a vacuum signal I would deduce will make the FPR cut the fuel way back, this will cause it to run lean... bad

A four barrel. You will have a larger range boost pressure that you can run. A two barrel is limited to how much boost you can run because it only has one primary circuit, with a four barrel you get at least two.

it's different on a carb because your base fuel pressure is set to make it run properly using that vacuum at idle (but without reducing fuel pressure, just like an n/a carb) and just off-idle, as long as everything else is setup properly, and only needs to compensate against boost pressure in boost.
