Hopefully a final note on my latest troubles with the car. I put everything back where it was, made sure there were no kinks in the lines, and started it up. The fuel pressure guage read about 4psi, is that enough for a 2 barrel Rochester? Seems to chug a bit at low acceleration. I will fabricate a mounting bracket and install the in-tank pump if the car stalls again.
Thanks for the help/suggestions everyone!
Rick
