Funny thing and final post.
Thank You Gary for the pointer about the check valve, good eye! Once that was removed, I instantly gained better flow to compensate for the loss of pressure upstairs.
The funny thing is, when the well guy left, with tape all over the yard and pipe strewn across my front yard, I went to work re-taping my wire to reset my old well pump and completed the job in about 20 minutes. After it was installed, I ran the same test i posted last night and the old pump maintained 10psi higher than the new pump the well guy installed.
10 more psi + no check valve - 1 crook = problem solved.
Thanks for ALL the input guys (and gals)
