Default Will this work?

I asked this before, but its clearer this time with the drawing of the system.

Its set-up this way because the factory pump on the vette needs to be running at 60PSI the whole time otherwise it wont transfer fuel from the passenger side tank.

In this set-up I intend to leave the big pump on the whole time, and have it hooked this way, so even at hard braking where the fuel sloshes to the front of the tank the internal pump will be able to maintain pressure etc...

My only question is, assuming I do NOT hook a vacuum line onto the regulator, will I be able to maintain 60PSI of fuel pressure through this set-up? NOTE: FP measured at the rails.

come on guys, someone has to know this lol.

The main question is, will I be able to maintain 60PSI (measured at the rail) with a boost (only) refrenced regulator that is fit prior to the rails?

Im looking at 750rwhp on pump with this set-up, I also have a BAP hooked onto the Bosch FYI.

I came across this - the drawings on page 3 might help.
