If those are the same as the triple Webbers they only need 2.5 to 3#s.
The dial type regulator might work. I would install an inline gauge to
be sure.
Any holley dealer should have rebuild kits, see if they have any with
grose jets instead of the needle and seat type.

I just put a 2-4 psi electric pump in my 71 TR-6 that had been sitting
for 6 months and it is flooding out my dual downdraft webers - gas
bubbling out the carbs.

Is this too much pressure or are the floats likely stuck in the bowls...
or both?  I have one of those dial a pressure regulators that I could
install if needed, but it may be time to rebuild the carbs - any
reccommendations on where to get rebuild kits?

Thanks,
