Charlie,

You may want your pressure = regulator to follow your manifold pressure. This would be especially useful at = idle if you were set at 58 lbs. Injectors are flow rated at about 43.5 = lbs, so at 58 they would put out more fuel than they were rated for, which could = make getting your idle set correctly a problem. Or maybe = not??
