If the pump is designed to deliver 55 PSI I'd say it'd stretch to 60 with a different FPR... and a different engine, of course, because increasing the fuel pressure on a standard V6 is a hiding to nothing. ;)

Retrofitted an AutoGauge fuel press gauge, which indicates 3,0 bar when starting and 2,2 - 2,3 bar on normal run.

Doesn't the replacement engine come with the correct FPR that it needs, or is this being done piecemeal?

Kevin Wood does present a valid point - is the in-tank pump man enough, or would you be pushing that a bit hard. Certainly wouldn't want it going lean at WOT.

Does the pipework and filter allow enough flow? Looks to be a few gotchas that are out there that could trip you up.

Too low for 60psi! Silly! ;D

That's a difference of 5psi. Nosey Parker! ;)

Got a 3.2 injector rail sat on my bench and it is also 3.8 bar. I guess that's decided then. :y
