i do believe i used your video for a base on how to bump my timing; and i ripped the idea of the ratchet strap off of you. good work just a suggestion; if you dont wanna drill the hole larger you can hook it to the mount of the air box. i think this is a little sturdier too. it didnt mess the inner side of your fender up? b/c it took a good bit of pulling to break my IP loose

i was doing bobby's throttle indexing mod and i kinda noticed my pump doesnt automatically return to idle, in fact it doesnt get any spring tension until 1/4-1/2 throttle... i think my governor spring is about as stretched out as pamela anderson and the throttle return springs/ bracket were AWOL... the trucks been in my family since they bought it in 89 and they've never modded anything... infact they've always complained it was nutless from day one

If you're refering to tower ofpower's signiture, you take a grinder and grind the deepest side down to almost nothing, then grab a welder, turn it way too hot, then proceed to burn it clean into two pieces. Sorry, I couldn't resist.
