Fixing the 12 Valve
I had 4.10 and 265 tires , I was getting 18-20 all day ..
I now have 3.55's . should get 23-25 on the freeway ..
As far as your power .. a stock set of 215 injectors and your stock pump with 191 DV's would be a great combo .. Factory timing needs to be re-set to 16*-18*.... then is will run great ..
Also get your fuel pressure up there .. bout 26-30 PSI minimum ..

As for your fuel plate, i really recomend you get a #10 plate, i have one, it's a nice moderate plate. A
#100 plate is a really agressive plate. A 4000 springs is really not needed for what you what, i'd go with a 3000 spring set, i have that on mine.
And a pyro gauge is recomended if you don't have one installed yet.

Well he's gonna wanna haul A$$ .. so 4K is gonna get ya there, also if you do go 4K's .. make sure your fuel pressure is closer to the 30-32 psi .. other wise on the top it will get to low ...
With mods like your's what am I looking at in terms of reliability. Last year there was only one day my truck wouldn't start and that was -35 and it wasn't plugged in. ( I lived at the dorms my first year at college) Now I have an apartment with a plug in.
I am just trying to make affordable power, nothing too crazy. I don't want to buy cheap crap that will break itself, or the truck.
Going with a 4K set up will I have to get a aftermarket fuel pump like a fass or something of the sort to minimize the risk of killing the regular stock pump?
I will be adding a fuel pressure gauge, and pryo. I'll be putting them in where the pull out cup holders used to be and replace the cup holders with one from Geno's

You can run 4K with stock LP, You will need to restrict the return line though .. and adjustabel OFV will make wonders happen, I recently did Mine and it runs awesome !!!
Larryb - LarryB's Dodge Diesel, 94-98, Fuel Pressure Adjustment Kit
the above link is what i installed .. my Fuel pressure before was about 15 psi .. now after its 30psi .. WHAT A HUGE DIFFERENCE !!!!!!
I can bump the key and it fires up when cold ( 40*) .. not an issue, it will do better cold I'm sure !!
