No, I'm not using the original pump..I'm using a Holly pump that they supply
with their ProJection throttle Body injection system and I have installed a
return line from the TB to the tank..The GM700 pressure regulator adjustment
screw has been spot welded in place so I am going to drill out the spot weld
and replace the screw so I can make pressure adjustments...I think the
pressures you're talking about would be "dead headed" pressures and not
"regulated" pressures. To adjust the pressure a guage would be placed in
the supply line and with the return line connected, the pressure
adjusted...Look at the Haynes book again and I think you'll see what I'm
talking about..
