Its been a while since I messed with any carb stuff but I do recall having to put a fuel pressure regulator on the system. I also had a hard time getting an electric fuel pump to be reliable after being restricted down to 5psi.

Do you mean regulating an EFI pump down to 5psi??

Pretty much any aftermarket 5psi pump should do the job.

All the aftermarket pumps I could find were 15psi+. Then I had to buy a regulator to get down to 5.

The local Advanced Auto Parts stores around here have 5psi fuel pumps for $34.99 and they are right on the shelf. Try them first and if not Jegs and Summit have them pretty cheap as well.
