I am running just over two psi fuel pressure on my Weber and it runs fine. Just be sure not to go too high or you will have problems as I found out. Don't know what comes with the carb kit you purchased but you will need an adapter plate to fit the carb to the existing stock intake. Need more information and the year of your truck with any engine changes you may have.
