To lift one pound using air pressure, you need approximately 1 psi. This is based on the principle that 1 psi can lift about 1 pound per square inch of surface area. Therefore, if you have a larger surface area, you would need proportionally less psi to lift the same weight. For example, a surface area of 2 square inches would require only 0.5 psi to lift 1 pound.
One pound of water one inch.
Pound per Square Inch = PSI means 1pound in terms of pressure will be 1 psi.
There is no mathematical conversion needed - 1 psi is equal to 1 psi. The terms "psig" and "psi" are often used interchangeably to refer to pounds per square inch of pressure. However, "psig" specifically denotes pressure relative to the local atmospheric pressure, while "psi" is an absolute measure.
32 PSI
You can lift a locomotive or a house with 1 psi, if the pressure is applied over a large enough area.
Any air pressure is sufficient, if you have enough area with that pressure applied. Foe example, you could lift a 10000 pound truck with 10000 psi, if you have one square inch being acted on; you could do it with 1 psi, if you had 69.5 square feet being acted on.

No it is not metric unit. It is foot-pound-sec unit. Psi is pound per square inch.

Psi stands for pound per square inch. This system is used to measure pressure. 1 Psi is equal to 1 pound of force on an area of 1 square inch.
The lift pump on a 6.7L only runs at around 10 psi. The fuel rail pressure on the other hand can be as high as 20,000 psi.
My truck is also a 1999 3500 and the press. is about 13 - 14 psi before the filter on a stock lift pump,after the filter you lose about a pound depending on how dirty it is.
