Slant Six Carb Issues

Well…yeah, you could shove a cork in the tailpipe and kindasorta stop the exhaust smoke, or you could fix the actual problem: it's time for a fuel pump built to correct specifications.
I can’t afford to just Willy Billy start buying new pumps and hope to god that it works the way it’s supposed to. They don’t even put that information on the box. So like if the catalog says it’s for my engine that’s all I get. What I can afford to do is by a cheapy pressure regulator and set it to 5lbs or so and call it a done deal. It’ll be sufficient until I have the funds saved up to replace this intake entirely.
