My apologies for not completing my thoughts. I got distracted. (wife bugged me)
Since gasoline has a specific gravity of .75 C the head pressure is reduced by the same proportion C giving us the following; .75 X .433 psi = .325 psi
Be sure to take this into account in your design. Wouldn't it be easier to just buy a Mikuni or Facet fuel pump C even if you have a gravity feed system?
