dear dr Lee,
Let me start off by saying that the old 6.2NA in my truck has died and gone to diesel heaven and is being replaced by a Diesel Depot 325Hp 6.5TD, :cool: Thanks Jamie, it has all the mods of yours and then some like a new custom camshaft. Anyway the engine requires an eletric lift pump to run and I am not sure how to wire it so it can be used to fill changed/new filters and function normally. The other thing is I pruchased the Autometer tach(2888) and I am curious as to how you calibraded yours. Even though you dont have one where is a good spot to measure boost from I am guessing just after the compresser side of the turbo.
On a side note you have a very cool truck ,I do prefer stepsides though. ;)

You can measure turbo boost anywhere that's convenient between the compressor outlet and the plenum chamber on the manifold, mine is tapped into the plenum chamber as it's closer to the firewall and makes for a shorter run away from hot engine parts etc.
