Default Electric Fuel Pump/Carb...

Any of you guys running an electric pump over a mechanical pump with a carb setup? When my boat sits for over a month it's virtually impossible to get the mechanical to fill the bowls...maybe I just need to replace the mechanical, but it seems that maybe a Holley red (or equivilent) with a regulator would make it much simpler...

Whatcha y'all runnin???

Well I use to run a Holley Red with a regulator on my Mustang with a carb setup and it ran awesome.
I am now going to run a Holley Red on my 24' with a carb'd 468" that has no provision for a mechanical pump.

What size carb will you be running on your 468. Mine is an 850 Demon... I guess my question is where to regulate the pressure down to??? 5-6 lbs?
