Default Electronic fuel pump on Carb Motor

I am sick and tired of the primer bulb and the excessive cranking at the ramp. I am going to install electronic fuel pump on my 87 Looper and remove the current mechanical pump.

I have decided to implement this with safety in mind first and foremost.
I have searched and educate myself on Scream and Fly's where the racers have done it various ways.
Arguments were plenty in regards to regulation and pressure etc, Holley vrs Carter pumps etc, regulator or not ....
I went with "Airtex E8337 MARINE FUEL PUMP ELECTRIC UNIVERSAL EXTERNAL IN LINE MARINE FUEL PUMP COAST GUARD APPROVED FREE FLOW 5psi-9psi 30gph 5/16 INLET OUTLET BRAND NEW FACTORY FRESH FOR CARBURETED 12 VOLT NOT FOR FUEL INJECTION"
from Ebay.
Regulator is
Red Billet Aluminum Fuel Pressure Regulator w/ Gauge
3-12 PSI Adjustable 2 Port
These high quality regulators are adjustable from 3-12 PSI. Has one 3/8" NPT inlet port and dual 3/8" NPT outlet ports, non return style.
Red anodized for great looks and corrosion resistance. Includes mounting bracket.
Universal design, these regulators work perfect for carburetor gas applications from street to high flow race engines.
Please see my sketch up of exactly what I am doing. I will post results after its tested for, lean,wot, starts etc.

I will check and verify all fuel lines and replace as necessary. The entire setup will be in the hatch area attached to the Transom on the inside skin, away from the elements.

I am not sure if any one here did to a carb motor and can share some experience on this ?
