Any idea how many psi you have coming out of the fuel pump for the Holley? 6-7?

Ok, mount wise did it pretty well bolt in? From my understanding the only reason for slotting the passenger side hole is due to the Yj having its frame rails set further apart. I have to let me jeep go, but whoever ends up with it may want to do this swap  :'(
