3k GSK adjustment

Hey guys. When i first installed my GSK, my truck had to crank longer to start(idle wasnt to low either). So next time i was in the pump, i backed them off 2 clicks on each spring. Starts great now, just like it always did, but it seems like i start loosing steam around 2800rpm's, where before it seemed like it would pull to 3200rpm or so before it was done. Any ideas? Timing is advanced now. Dont know if that would help the starting any if i tightened them back up or not. I want to tighten them back up before long, because, like i said. It revs better/pulls harder in the higher rpm's that way. It just didnt start as good before, and i dont like having to crank it longer than it does now, or give it some pedal every time. Starts very quick right now; i just dont want to change that. Thanks for any help.

Crank 'em back down one click each Eric, then adjust the idle.

You would be at what a little more idle can do for slow starting!

It has always idled plenty fast though Even when it wasnt starting as fast when i had them tight the 1st time. I dont know. Im probably going to crank them back down soon anyway, so I will just play with it from there.
