I raced with a Carter rotary for 7 years and never had a fuel pump issue of any 
kind. One of the fastest TR3's in the country also runs a Carter, so from that 
limited sample I think you are okay. You need to confirm that 4 psi is what the 
Carter is actually putting out and whether the 4 psi can be handled by the 
Webers without issues.
