govenor spring results

Finally got around to installing the spring this weekend and all I can say is WOW! Best eighteen dollars I've ever spent, even though it was the hardest eighteen dollar part I have ever installed. I seen more performance from it than I did with the addition of the POD's, but I guess it's helping make the most of the injectors now. From a dead stop the truck will spin both back tires through the first two gears without even using the brakes. Smokes alot more now and the temps are up, will hit 1600 in no time , but I built the truck to play, not to tow and will it ever play now! Look out powerstrokes . Darl

Yea, you always want more, but I think I better leave well enough alone for now. Maybe a little more air, but I don't know how long the old tranny will last the way it is now. Sure don't have the money for a DTT yet. Will see. Darl

I just got mine installed over this past weeked and I can not believe the results. It made all the difference in the world for top end power. Temps are about the same. Yeah its about time for some porting and polishing.
