Where is your fuel pump?

Are you running a FI fuel pump?

How big is your fuel line from your tank to your fuel pump?

Is there a possibility that the screen sock in your tank has something (such as rust) restricting the flow?

I've heard stories of people finding trash or other items in their tank that plug the screen sock area.

I'm running FI also and I have my Pump located just forward of the rear axle with as large a tube as I could get from the tank to the pump (5/8). The fuel bar at the front should have about 35 pounds of pressure.
