I completely agree. Unless you make your own cheap fuel!

Transfer tank with a pump is easy and has multiple uses. Then one you are lazy just fill the bed with 5 gallons jugs like I do for trips

Pee sure. Buy expensive fuel? Nah

~1800 mile range was SWEET. 6-800 is decent though.

Just spent about 900 miles driving this guy, half of which was done with about 17* of timing advance. I noticed a little loss on the low end, but she rips a little harder from 1800-2200.

When removing the #1 delivery valve, we found a broken spacer washer thingy underneath it. Reinstalled for the trip home (ran the same) but hoping that may contribute to some of the #1 weirdness it's had for a while.

Also got all new fuel and brake lines Saturday at Chad's house.  :-X

This will totally jinx it all, but it is running as well as it has since I have owned it right now. Governer springs would improve drivability some. Beyond that, I see delivery valves and injectors and not much else.

Hills at 70 were a breeze with the advanced timing towing Jeepie this weekend. It's nice.

Reid bought a 96 3500 down in FL. 4x4 5spd. Took it for a rip last night, wow. Either mine is lacking or that 215 pump really does make a huge difference. I reliaze mine is on 37s and his is on 33s, but still. It seemed to require noticeably less throttle at all speeds than I remember mine needing on 32s. It also revs to 3k and mine stops at 2750. Not sure if his has had a GSK installed or not. Hoping GSK and DVs will get me close to where his is.

it has a 3k GSK if it stops around 3k and not 2750, and that will make a WORLD of difference since it'll allow more fuel all over the place.

Pac Brake GSK comes with springs for either 3k or 4k, so I'll decide on that later. Pry just do 4k like suggested in here so full fueling up to 3k will be possible. Assuming power <2k will be the same with either?

Will 191 delivery valves make for a good towrig/DD? As opposed to a bombed out coal roller. Chad said buy whatever I can get a deal on as stock sucks, 191s seem to go for $170-200.

I have to defer to Chad on DVs. I'd go 4k so you can do 3200 rpm when you want or need to.

Remember you can't get hot egt even with no plate so I wonder is its a sign there's something that's holding back your power.

I know, I've definitely considered that too. I need to replace the broken copper washer in the pump ASAP, I'm curious how much that's hindering performance.

Chad spent a decent amount of time riding around in it a couple weeks ago and felt it was pretty consistent with what he would expect from a low HP pump truck on 37s.
