I am assuming you have an adjustable fuel pressure regulator

Set it to stock fuel pressure setting, of 38-40 PSI with the regulator vacuum line (stock is red) plugged with your finger.

Do it while the engine is warm and at idle

Use the stock pressure for a basic stock engine -38-40 PSI, engine running, vacuum line disconnected from the regulator and capped.
