3 lbs of fuel pressure should be more than enough for an 836 Honda, provided a lot of other things are correct, you could have an ignition/coils dying, ck them, should be 3ohms, the floats are very critical, as well as levels, when you pull a bowl off, the fuel should be within 3/16 of an inch of the top, and your fuel pump may be going South, if your're running a regulator, get yourself, or make, a bypass, thats the prefered way to regulate fuel, set it by pill or whatever, to about .75 gpm, and that should be close, main feed orfices, .077, .095 should fill the bill, also ck the battery, under load, anything below 11v is not enough. Another thing, don't let that engine idle below about 3k, that's what kills cam chains, and wrecks the chain tensioner, the valve events on an aftermarket cam are so severe, it just wrecks the valve train, an even higher idle is prefered, but sometimes not practical!
