The AC should also be a 190.

oh, ok. (haha - first 2 times I read that, I thought were talking about the Air Conditioning, haha...:mad2:)

I just pulled a 18' car hauler with 8' sides overloaded with concrete tarps w/o trailer brakes (cause I still have something loose somewhere) and my boost did fine, and my engine temp stayed around 195/200. Never got over 210. After I unhooked though, the gauge got real close to 210 - closer than pulling that heavy trailer.
 
Do you have access to a scanner or Scangauge to read what temp the computer is seeing?

I find that there is about a 10deg difference between the ECM and dash gauge.

The dash gauges are more like fancy idiot lights than real gauges.

No - I don't have a scangauge - its next on my list. (and after that - assuming my cooling and starting gets fixed, is a 93 lift pump)

Walbro doesn't cost any more than the 93 pump. A few vendors on here sell it as well.

yea - but when i do it, i'd really like to get the filter as well (which is an added expense), and then the fittings and hoses (also added expense) and then the labor to put everything together. I'll see what money I have available and time as well...that's something for later down the road. I don't need to give myself an excuse to push my truck any harder either, haha.
