 The Workshop Manual specifies an SU AUF 300 pump as standard. That pump's pressure output is 2.7 psi 'minimum' (2.7-3.8 psi range). Flow losses through the plumbing, and an elevation difference between the pump outlet and the carb inlets will result in a slightly lower pressure at the carb inlets. The carbs, both Zenith-Stromberg & Dellorto prefer 1.5 - 2.5 psi. 2.7 psi is a little high for a Dellorto. Z-S carbs can tolerate 3.8 psi, but they work better at ~2.5 psi.
