Unhappy Weber Carbs

I recently removed my stock carb on my 22r, and replaced it with the Weber. My problem is when I'm driving in town it runs just fine, but when I get on the hi-way and try to go 70 it sputters and acts like it not getting enough fuel. Is the stock fuel pump just not keeping up on the volume of fuel the Weber needs? I'm tired of taking back roads! Help!

camo, I think you're right on the 3psi, but I ended up playing around with mine to find out exactly where it was happy. Seems 1.5-3psi is optimal though.

Thanks for the help. I went and bought a better regulator. I'll give the 3 psi a try.
