fuel pressure with carbs

hey guys, I have been wondering about what effect fuel pressure has on a car with carbs. When I got my 914, it had dual webers and a pressure regulator; I'm not even sure what the regulator is set at. But is there one setting that is reccomended? Or is it something that can be tweaked? Thanks in advance, my curiosity was getting to me on this.

Everything I've read and heard is 3-5 psi on Webers.

I run my Webers at 3 1/2 LBS put a perssure gauge in line before the carbs if you want to see what you are running at

Street 3.5 psi

Track - 5 psi

to much pressure overrides the needle valves and floods the engine.
