Turning a stock pin is not much difference. All 3 of the ones I have turned were almost set to the deepest anyway from day 1. Don't just turn it without looking where it is. My 92 was about 10 degrees from deepest. An aftermarket M+H pin gave me 5 or 6 psi more boost. The only drawback on a deep pin is the chance of it making the pump leak fuel.

Alright guys, thats not what I want to hear after pulling the motor and trans and cleaning them up and replacing all kinda of gaskets and seals. I hope this thing has no leaks for a long time.
I can dream right?

Its not an external leak. I would not even call it a leak as much as a seep. Some donlt even leak. You will just notice some fuel in the bowl were the pin goes. Its the only draw back to an aftermarket pin. And its not even gonna hurt anything.

That leak is usually just the gunk built up on the pin that rides on the fuel cone.
The stock cone doesn't let the pin come out as far as aftermarket ones do.
After driving it for a while the gunk is scrubbed off by the washer and the leak goes away.
