All this talk for goatracer and all over a mechanical pump that makes too much pressure?? Just a stock 389??

Sounds to me like you just need to find a good mechanical pump. Rigging up an entire fuel system just because you have a faulty mechanical seems like a bandaid for the actual issue.

It can't be just me but I haven't had a stock style mechanical make too much pressure. Ive only had them not make enough. And I still have a half dozen cars here that run mechanicals.

If it were mine I stay away from carter, air tech, AC, and all that stuff that looks like stock cheap pumps because that's what they are.....cheap i either run a robbmc or I buy the summit brand pumps. The summit pumps that are around 60 gph only make 7-ish psi and work fine on stock and mild engines. That would be super simple and way easier solution and not have to cobble up the fuel system with add on stuff
