55 psi is to high. turn it down to 40 psi. the higher fuel pressure is going to make you run rich...

I still think 40 psi is stilla little high. Not extremely high though. Stock fuel pressure is about 38 psi.

i usually just say 40 because it's easier to dial in than 38. i know that 38 is stock fuel pressure on D blocks, but wasnt sure if it was the same for B series. anyways, here's the how to you need...
