I seen one guy on chitown racing said he had recently got 82%.
Now that's convincing! Thanks for the info and very cool. I lifted my head once but the gasket remained intact so I'm still in the no blown HG club too.

Okay guys I have some interesting info for those wanting to keep the stock fuel lines and still run a higher flow pump. I was stuck at 58psi after the pump swap. After discussing cutting off the Saginaw fitting with Kip, and he knowing I wanted to be able to go back stock. Kip suggested opening up the fitting with a drill bit. So the fitting by the reg was 5/32 to 7/32. On the frame line from a 3/32 to 5/32. The bottom of the rubber fuel line, that connects to the frame line 7/32 to 1/4. Kip said little changes will make for some BIG changes and man was he right. Psi dropped to 37psi! Just throwing that info out there in case wanted to stay more stocking or needing to save some $$$. Thanks again Kip 
Did you see deterioration in the two pieces of rubber hose or did you just change them since you were in there?
Did you use parts store fuel pressure hose?

Didn't find anything wrong with my hoses at all. I did replace them with the fuel injection hose from advanced auto because I cut one in half to see if it was eating away at the inside. Didn't see anything. This was the same car in the Midwest section dyno day at Sound Performance.
