Adam,
Are you using a dry or liquid filled fuel pressure gauge? Also, did you use the fittings supplied with the pumps or re-plumb them to fit your application? I assume the pressure is higher when the motor is cold then will drop when it gets warmer? I have had multiple issues with liquid filled gauges before.. drain the liquid and try again... good luck.
