You'd have to pull the down pipe to check if you don't have another one to compare to. You can remove the e clip that holds the rod on and see if the arm moves or if it binds. Chances are it is stock and has never been adjusted so it opens where it should netting you the low boost. But trying to adjust them usually ends up with a broken rod so I just plug them and don't mess with them. I really like spring gates on those to be honest. They are easy to adjust and aren't that expensive these days.

Are you referring to an electric clutch like on the common rails? Because dodge never had them before the common rails. You can get a Horton one and make it work but it's a little more involved than just bolting the electric hub on and going. The common rail ones won't work on the older 5.9s.
