Default Fuel Pressure drops 5lbs on accel; then goes back up to where it's suppossed to be.

What do you guys think. I know you have to disconnect the vacume line while checking fuel pressure. I just put a brand new walbro 255 fuel pump in. Do you think I did something wrong? I have lean sparkplugs on the driverside. What could this be? It's missing after it gets warmed up at 2500 and up and it's idling at 1300 rpms? Any ideas?

If the car is only running lean on the driver's side, then the fuel system, all the way to the rails, is fine. If it's a whole bank, I'd rule out a bad injector as well. O2's will cause one bank to run a different a/f than the other. How lean do the plugs look? How do the passanger side plugs look?
