Default Pressure specs for external pump???

I have been looking for the output pressure specs for the external pump on my 79 euro. I keep seeing flow specs are about 255lph, but I can't find anything regarding output pressure. I have a pump at home from another vehicle that will give me the flow requirement, but I don't know if it will give me the pressure, or even for that matter if the pressure out of the pump really matters when it gets to the stock fpr will that not give me what is required at the motor?

My fp at home is a 105 gph, which is a little higher than the 255 lph (67-68gph), would this potentially work as a mid to long term fix or is this just something I should only consider to fire the car up in the driveway.

The car came to me with no fuel pump, PO said he had it and would bring it, but no dice as of yet.

Thanks for the help...every bit is appreciated.

I don't know if I just did a smart thing, but I found a pump on eBay that appears to have the proper pressure rating... at this point I just want to hear the car run...any ideas on a good pump to run? I hear 044 pumps a lot, just don't know what should be there...the car only has one pump, no in tank pump
