That "lag between gears" you speak of is caused by the stock governed injection pump not fueling high enough to keep it in the middle of the powerband at shift point. The 3200GSK gives it an extra 1k rpm to fuel, letting you comfortably wind it up enough to grab the next gear without losing power when you shift. Best money to be spent on a 1st Gen stick truck, no exceptions. Not much $ either, around $20, give or take.

---AutoMerged DoublePost--- As far as more power goes, as soon as you do the spring, your truck will come to life. Then a few turns on the full pwer screw will make it a new truck. Look in the "sticky" and study all the injection pump tricks. An aftermarket fuel pin will put you on the next level, and you tune the pump to accomidate all your mods and you'll love it... for a while then you'll be ready for injectors and lift pump etc... but for now the cheep and free mods are all in the sticky for your enjoyment. I didn't mention turbo, because I know you're already workin on it.

ABSOLUTLEY!!! Having a diesel without gauges is silly in the first place. BUT when messing with your pump gauges are a must. Start with a pyrometer(EGTs), and a boost gauge. Then you can get other gauges ie. fuel preaesure, tranny temp(if you have an auto) etc.

I have autometers and an isspro They are both pretty good, if you ask me. When you're ready to order gauges go to the price quote section and post you're looking to order guages and you will get bombarded with sweet hook-ups from our sponsors on this site. Plus, you can go to the contest and give away section, and post on that because DB is giving away gauges and a pod!
