Don't those have an internal bypass? Perhaps something to look into if they do.

The bypass valve is opening, not fully, but some.
(Fully open at WOT on a 6.0 you see 2 pounds)
Needs to be adjusted.
I would also check for proper vac routing on the bypass valve. (There is also an electrical component to this but most folks bypass it. I actually used mine as a valet switch)
