At 10 psi of boost you'll need 15-17 psi of fuel pressue. I'm asking because for my next engine build I want to run a centrifugal on the Chevelle.
Just to clarify, I don't believe this is required for a roots blower that is carbureted. I had my regulator set to 6.5 psi.

HP numbers are good and all, but they are like asking someone how much they can bench. What difference does it make if I can still kick your ass?
