Re: 1969 Chevy Stepside Restoration/Build up

Finally got around to installing my external fuel pump, original sending unit, and my new Aeromotive pressure regulator setup. Now that it's finally installed again I drove the truck for the first time in weeks. It ran awesome with the new pump and regulator. I'm not sure what to set the pressure to though, I think the factory spec for the 5.3L is 55-62 PSI. But I set mine to 50 because if I went higher it seemed to be running rich. Tomorrow I'm installing the lowering kit and shocks.
