Default Fuel pressure for LT4

I think I just pulled a real nice bone head move!!! I just installed an Aeromotive AFPR on my LT4... but I did not check the stock fuel pressure before I yanked the old part off. Anyone know what stock fuel pressure of an LT4 is???

I believe stock is 43.5 psi with vac line off.

Spec is 41 - 47psi I think. That is with no vacuum to FPR (simulated full throttle).

On my '95 at idle with vacuum line ON it shows about 36psi, remove vac line and it goes to 44psi.

But aren't you putting that on to be able to adjust it anyway?

Or do you ask just for a baseline?

I also just purchased one but I haven't put it on yet. Nice piece.

I just want a baseline to start with. I will eventually buy some form of LT1 edit to custom tune my car. At that time I will mess with the PSI of the fuel... right now I just want to be able to start and drive the car without running too rich or too lean.
