Its probably the same. You can call the parts store and get a part number on the TPI pump and the V6 pump - that will tell you right away. If they are no the same part # then ask for the specs on each - they may have a book that tells LPH on the pump.
Or....just try it. If it doesnt work then you know you have to change it right?

No, it was carb'd and I was using a holley FPR to get the presure down low enough. I never had a problem with not getting enough gas, though... there was plenty of fuel flow for the 350.
I never measured the pressure before the regulator... my pressure guage was installed just before the carb.Tracy
