    For an 03 the stock boost should be around 25 psi. That's 3rd gear wot. That's how they test to see if the vanes are opening the fully. I will tag 27 psi sometimes. 60 mph is about 7 psi with mine.

    6.0L Questions

    I know the 7.3 has a better head bolt assembly to hold the heads down than the 6.0l. The 6.0 will start to lift the head gasket enough to cause leakage under high boost conditions-- +30 psi. The 6.0 will go like hell if you mod it but I think the 7.3 is a better bet to heavily modify. I have...

    Autometer Oil Pressure Guage

    I've looked for the test port but I think it's under the EGR valve which is a major pain. Is there one on the oil filter housing like you say, where abouts should I be looking.? I'm fairly mechanically inclined, but don't want it to turn into a 9 hr job. In the 6.0l engine manaul for 03 the...
