3K GSK or just tighten stock springs 3 clicks???
New to this forum and hbeen actively using the search engine. A couple of posts indicated that just tightening the retaining nuts on the stock springs 3 to 4 clicks would have the governor behave like a 3K GSK would.
Is this true? If I want a little more RPM headroom, why not just tighten down the stock springs instead of messing around with a kit?
Am I missing something?
Advice/experience gratefully appreciated.
Thanks...Steve.

tightening the stock springs will deffinately help; but wont perform exactly like the 3k GSK. i'm a firm believer of doing it right so go the 3k gsk route. if anything tightening the factory springs will make the truck behave like a "new" truck and restore the characteristics of a new set of stock springs. same thing occurs with high mileage injector springs. they sag and injection pressures drop

Get a spring kit. It's only a bandaid to tighten them and it can cause other issues. Ask a vendor for a price quote and do it right. I waited forever to put mine in and now that I have the 4K kit in I have no idea why I waited. I have a little tweaking to do with them yet but that's just me being nit picky.
