my bad i thought it was a 3.7
i know a guy running a 4bt turbo on a 351,he says it works great pushing only 15 pounds

you can tee into pretty much any vaccum line, your vacc pressure should be the same throughout the entire system

you have a 3.9 you say?

Get 5.2/5.9 injectors... I think they'd be big enough?

just swap out 6 3.9 injectors for 6 5.2/5.9 injectors. They flow more fuel for the same ~2.5 (maybe ~3 since dodges run rich) millisecond firing gap, which compensates for the added air.

it doesnt. all i'm saying is that that question is absurd for someone who is planning to do a turbo, let alone one for cheap, it doesnt exist.
