I wouldn't go much higher than 30 PSI with the stock canister LID, just to be safe I would get a billet lid if you really want to run over 30 PSI to prevent seepage or perhaps cracking or severe leakage with the stock plastic lid. Geno's has a pretty nice billet lid.

I run a belt driven MITUSA along with a Aeromotive boost referenced rising rate regulator and a billet aluminum fuel filter cap. I idle with 35psi and rise to 95-100psi at max boost. I've heard of the plastic ff caps blowing off in the 50psi range, so be careful.

I'm getting 18-19psi with the Carter pushing my stock pump on the filter. I'm thinking of getting a Holley Black to replace the Carter.

The dyno says it does. It's certainly not needed, but it does improve power. No leaks or any other issues either.

i dont know why your still running the stock fuel filter with a FASS 150/150.... Wouldnt that be an unneccessary restriction when you have two fleetguard filters on the pump?
