Default 12 valve fuel pressure question

does any one have any specs on what the fuel pressure should be after the fuel filter, say at idle, wot, at wot i have 12 psi boost, which seems to be normal for this lagy mc lagerton exhaust housing i have, so say fuel pressure at idle, and wot with a max of 12 psi boost. i just had a filter clog up on me, and i replaced it which seems to have fixed the problem, but i want to install a gauge for future monitoring of the filter condition. 1991.5 12 valve ve pump, intercooled with a new lift pump, no intank pump.

You should be looking for 6-8 psi into the VE pump. I highly suggest getting yourself a fuel pressure gauge as well.
