how much is too much?
#2
Depends on timing advance and how the truck is used.........cylinder pressure is what smokes head gaskets and while boost is an important factor it isn't the only factor.......anyway, 50-60 psi seems to be the range, although you would be considered very lucky around here if you kept a head gasket in at 60 psi - some guys are blowing them out at 50 psi!..........55 psi would probably be the reasonable limit but at that point you would have to run a large after market turbo to efficiently boost that high and a lot of extra fuel.
