The noise doesn't bother me and the "stock appearance" think is a moot point since it's got an Olds engine... (for the record, that was not my doing)

I think I'm going to need a bigger electric pump if I decide to stick with it, though. It seems like the engine is getting enough fuel to idle and even rev up while parked but the minute you try to take it on the road, it won't go very far. I'm thinking I'll change the fuel filter(s), buy a new pump and see if I can't boost the pressure up a bit.

The fuel rail has a gauge on it that never reads anything. I assumed the gauge was broken but perhaps it's just not getting enough pressure to read. Can someone give me a suggestion on what volume electric pump to use on a 455 with a Holley 750?
