First, the plug in the top of the center section housing either is leaking or will leak. Do yourself a favor and pull that plug and put some thread sealant on it before you install it on the truck...... If it hasn't already been done.
Also, with stock sticks you're going to loose a lot of boost with the 38R. I'd suggest you go ahead and crank the waste gate down as far as you can before hand as well.

Not at all. I have mine pulled shut with a chain and turnbuckle. Stock sticks will only push 26-28 psi with the BB.
