Sounds a little low to me, but the only true way to know is to use a wide band O2 meter.

Try setting to 39 with vacuum off. It should dip to about 31-32.

You have to set your fuel pressure with the vacuum line to the regulator disconnected. '35 psi with vacuum on at idle' means nothing unless we/you know how much vacuum your engine pulls at idle.
