fuel pin grind

Hey guys,
Ground my fuel pin at work today, WOW what a diff!! I've turned the pump up quite a while back and just set the pin deep. Grinding it down made a huge change! I can get 4th gear scratch on pavement!!!
Can't wait to get a 3200 spring, then i can get this thing some topend. 85 was top, just grinding pin i see 90 mph. hopefully 3200 spring will get me to 100!! ya'll take it easy!

p.s. Is there a sticky for water meth? If anybody has a line on a good thread for w/m, send it my way! I want to educate myself about water/meth!

Check to make sure the throttle linkage is giving you full travel.

Checked it yesterday when i put a new throttle rod and ball stud. 37$ at the dodge dealer, and it came in a cummins bag!! haha At least it has metal ends instead of plastic!

You just crossed the "event horizon", from which there is no return! That fuel pin grind is great, and combined with a 3,200 spring she will fly!
