Default carter comp fuel pump

Im using the same mechanical carter comp fuel pump from probably the 90's. I bought a auto gage fuel pressure gauge and 4an line kit since I had no idea what I have for pressure. I started it up and it read like 8.75 psi. After I ran it for awhile it slowly crept down to about 7.5. Anybody using this pump and what do you have for pressure? I would think if the gauge was accurate i would have flooding problems if it were really 8.75 psi. I havent had a chance yet to go out and make a pull and see what it goes down to.
