I'm running two 2bbl motorcraft carbs on a tunnel ram and am wondering if i need a fuel log and regulator. I'm running a stock fuel pump and the carbs are stock. On the 3 duece on our model A we ran a regulator, just wonder if I need to do same on this setup. I'm gettin ready to fire up the motor if it ever warms up here.
 
With a stock pump you probably don't need a regulator but you might want to add a pressure gauge in the line to make sure the pressure is in the range you need it to be. If the pressure seems too high, then you could add a regulator. DISCLAIMER: I'm just a shadetree mechanic but I've worked under quite a few trees.
 
I used to work under trees but the falling coconuts kept hitting me in the head. :D I agree with Bill, you should be ok with the stock pressure, mechanical pumps don't put out a whole lot and you are splitting it between two carbs now.
