As for fuel pressure drop off, mine sits just under 60psi straight after shut off, after about 4 mins, its down to 30psi, and about about 10mins all the pressure has gone.

long story....
did a complete top-end rebuild. heads, cam, everything. had a weiand intake on the motor and was having all the symptoms of un-metered air while trying to get a tune. the iac reading keeps bouncing up and down, do to what appears to be air entering the intake/system somehow. decided to blame it on the weiand and sealing issues. purchased an ls2/ptm combo. did the install. and i'm still having the same problem(s). when throttling up while in park, the idle hangs for several sec's. also we cant get it to idle below 1000 rpms no matter whar we do. have checked everything. i found a cracked vacuum line and repaired it. but still the problems continue. i really was just fishing when asking about the drop in engine off fuel pressure. i am at a total loss at to what else to try here.
