That's fine I no what pressure it should be but isn't there an amount of fuel over an amount of time ? I was told you can have pressure but not quantity

That's correct, flow and pressure are two different things... Almost any pump will hold pressure at idle, but that doesn't mean it will flow enough to hold that same pressure at full load for example.
I'm not exactly sure what you are asking but if you have chosen a fuel pump capable of flowing for your desired BHP and your fuel pressure is set correct for your injectors and map you should be fine.
