What is the pump rated at? 32/36 carbs only need 3-4 psi of fuel.

Yes I have one and yes it needs a reg. don't mount it on the carb. it will vibrate apart. Ask me how I know that

If the pump is electric, you should mount it at the tank away from heat. They electrics push fuel more efficiently than a mechanical that sucks better. Definitely use a regulator, and you can put a little tee inline after the reg to see what pressure that's in the system. Put the gage in the tee, and NOT in the car. A leak and a spark can ruin your whole day!
