Default Throttle Response???

I'm looking to get a little more throttle response out of my 94 dodge cummins i have 90 hp injectors #0 fuel plate and timing adjusted and of course pump turned up.
i have heard of guys cutting a foot feeding stop bolt out and getting to higher rpms??? this would be nice cause right now rev limiter is at about 2400 rpm.
also the gas pedal has a lil slop in it as i can pull it up with my foot whats the problem there or can i adjust the linkage to pull that slop out and get a little more response that way??



thanks for your help guys all info is appreciated.

Put in 3k or 4k governor springs. Will wake it right up.

Fill out your sig. Is it an auto? If so, and it's stock, then that's where 90% or your throttle response is getting pissed away.

whoa whao pull it over slick with all that if it is an auto you might as well **** in the ocean to rise the tide, HIGHLY suggest a upgraded torgue convertor, AND a valve body to go with it, for a manual take a good look at you clutch make sure it ain't burned or slipping. and higher rpms might as well it in burlap to catch all the pieces as they come out! but its your truck
