You will not get the truck to rev above 2600 with any type of authority without the governor springs.

"you know whats" Sorry that drives me nuts
I agree, gov springs, I put 4k in my 94 and it can go up 3700 no prob, My stock 95 cant rev over 2300.
Sounds like your pouring the fuel to it, but it has nowhere to go so its smoking and popping. Maybe advance your timing some too

WHY???.....

This is a stock pump without governor springs it will not rev past 2400-2600 without defueling and doing exactly what he has described.
