I also used to run alot of v8s with the pump driven off the cams...they all had problems with leaky diaghrams, meaning...not even 5psi to run a v8..and they still ran. Slobs, but ran. There is fuel cell concepts that help keep pressure down for same chore as well. Injection is satan.

Ideas like yours are excellent and never bad opinioned by my own experience of unbelievably miraculously impossible running engines according to a gook with 50psi injection and "not enough".It has got to change..love to see questions like this, they can be answered.
For the curious, whats wrong with fuel injection?
