KGS365 - consider having your engine builder slap on a fuel pressure gauge there on your engine. It's a nice, handy diagnostic tool that will eventually be useful. A lot of under-hood fuel pressure gauges don't always read correctly with the change in temps (especially the liquid filled ones), but that's not as big a deal as you might think. Even though the gauge might, at times, read wrong, it will consistently read wrong -- so you'll get used to the unusual readings and it will indeed tell you what you need to know. And they look kind of cool, too.
