What should the fuel pressure for a 327 275 hp engine be while cranking with the starter at the carb connection also what amount of vacuum should it pull at cranking speed?

Please indulge an old six cylinder guy until I can get my recently ordered Detroit Iron CD version of the 1968 shop manual.
Thanks,

Fuel pressure 5 to 6 1/2 pounds.Vacuum is listed only with engine running.

Well , not today DdeuceMan, but about the 22 of October I used one (wheekchair) for three or four days, bad, bad knee. went to a brace for 3 weeks, now I am back to exercise on a recumbant exericiser bike. It is either exercise & loose weight or have a total knee replacment, heck I an too young at 67 for that, I don't go under the knife unless "that is My final answer!"


I did get my Detroit Iron CD. I am not too proud of it. I have Windows MX home and it won't handle the regular installation (not enough memory)and have to run it under a Paperview patch.There is no provision for a word search or any frills.
