Default Fuel Pump - Need a regulator

First, thanks guys for the help with the Victor Jr intake question. Much appreciated.

I need some advice on my fuel delivery situation. I'm in the process of upgrading to AFR 185 heads from the GT-40x (392 FRP crate engine), and was wondering if I'll run into fuel problems. I now have a Carter mechanical fuel pump, and my friend who's helping me with this (he's actually walking me through it step by step) strongly suggested I use a fuel pressure regulator. I'm using AN -8 throughout my fuel system and fuel is being delivered by a Jet Performance stage III modified Holly DP 750. Currently I'm jetted at 72's, front and rear.

On a side note, I was reading last night in a Ford performance book where they suggested AN -10 for anything over 450hp. Will -8 be enough for me? I plan on doing some track events from time to time, etc.
