Post P7100 pump breakdown

HI EVERYONE
I AM TRYING TO FIND A GOOD PICTURE OF A P7100 FUEL PUMP,SO I CAN LEARN ABOUT THE MECHANICS OF THIS PART.
I WANT TO LEARN ABOUT TWEAKING MY CAM PLATE ,THE SMOKE SCREW AND THE STAR WHEEL .
I KNOW THERE IS SOMEONE OUT THERE THAT CAN HELP ME ,I TOW A 9500 TRAILER WITHMY 97 3500 CTD-NV4500/5SPD TRANS-3.54 REAR GEARS(EATON LOCKER)
SOME MODS TO THE TRUCK,4"MAGNA FLOW EXAUST,
K&N AIR FILTER SYSTEM,FULL AMSOIL TREATMENT,ENG,TRANS,REAR END,INCLUDING AMSOIL BYPASS FILTERATION SYSTEM.I AM AN AMSOIL DEALER TOO AUTOMETER BOOST AND OIL PRES GAUGES,DIGITAL EGT GAUGE.
THE TRUCK HAS ONLY 122,000 MILES ON IT (99% TOWING MILES) I AM A MECH/WELDER/FABRICATOR BY TRADE SPENDING 27 YEARS IN A ROAD SIMULATION TEST LAB ,I ALSO BUILD AND RACE MOPAR MUSCLE CARS.

THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ THIS
ALL HELP WILL BE VERY APPRECIATED,THAT CUMMINS NEEDS JUST A LITTLE MORE HP/TQ TO MAKE IT UP THE ZILWAUKEE BRIDGE WHEN PULLING THE LOAD.MY GOAL IS 300HP AND 550TQ .

Here's a couple pics and a couple good places to do some reading on these parts, how they work and what they do...

Couple Decent Parts Diagrams
http://dieseldatabase.com/bosch-p710...pump-diagrams/

Torque Plate
http://dodgeram.org/tech/dsl/more_power/power_p7100.htm

Some Basic P-Pump Tuning
http://dieseldatabase.com/turning-up...00-pump/?id=58

Governor Arm Adjustment

Timing is another consideration for making more power efficiently:
http://dodgeram.org/tech/dsl/FAQ/timing.htm
http://dodgeram.info/tsb/1994/18-10-94a.htm

That should be a good start. I found all this and way way way more by utilizing DTR and Google's "Search" features.
