I would be curious to see what the pressure actually is in the head.

You can pull the 1/8" plug from the rear of the driver side head, and screw in a gauge to monitor this.

Its possible that the check valve/ screen/ vibra-lok fitting at the end of the fuel line that feeds the head is restricted.
I am running AE Scanner - Ford ProLine Pack. Can't I check it with that system? At least at the Fuel Filter I know I have 79 to 81 psi, that is what the return spring is set to.
How high does the gauge need to read, if I put it on the back of the head?
