John;

 That&= #8217;s essentially what I did, except I used epoxy instead of solder, and used a .050 wire to form the orifice. Then used a fuel filter as an accumulator.  It improved the idle of the engine. 

 I had= also found that using the un-damped MAP signal for the pressure-referenced fue= l pressure regulator caused rapid pulsations in the fuel pressure.  I don’t know that this affected engine operation in any way, but deci= ded it could an unknown stressing factor on the fuel system.  Using the damped MAP signal eliminated that phenomenon.

 All o= f this is influenced by the location of the MAP measuring ports.  Mine is picked up relatively close to the ports (about 6”) and would likely have stronger pulse than if picked up in an air box at the far end of lon= g runners.
