Towards the rear, muffler hangs over the tandems and running a 4" pipe from the turbo. Cruising at 2100rpm I could still hear the whistler turbo some but not nearly as loud.

Tank pump-5+ psi
Booster pump-35+ psi at idle
Injection pump
The booster pump is built into the bottom of the injection pump.
Pull an injector line from the hydraulic head and crank the motor for about 10 seconds. Fuel should be squirting up repeatedly about...
