fuel pressure gauge reads 62 psi at idle... i think im just used to the stock pump priming faster. if i turn the key to ign for a sec then start it fires up. Im hoping thats what it is. ill see how it acts

yeah, you shouldn't have to wait for pressure. we installed a Walbro in white1's truck and besides sounding a little deeper in tone instead of a high pitched whine you wouldn't know the difference, fires right off like a stock truck.

Still... you shouldn't have to wait fot 60+lbs to build. That should be closer to 60 when you shut the engine off (b/c the pump primes the system for a second or two... at least mine does). I can jump in my truck, trun key to crank, and fires right up.... no wait. Hmm... something's dropping pressure enough for you guys to have to wait for pressure to build up.
Maybe my pump flows faster than the advertised 255lph (Procharger Aux Pump). I dunno.
