1st time deisel owner

Hey everyone
I'm Zach and I have recently aquired a 1983 F250 with a 6.9L diesel and a 4 speed manual. I'm looking for any advice regarding the truck and how to get more HP. I am in Spokane WA at the moment but I'm heading up the road to Alaska in June of 2008 and hope to have the truck close to bullet proof befor I make the drive.

Thanks for your help.
Zach

Congrats on your new ride the 1983 F250 with a 6.9L diesel and a 4 speed manual. Help, info is in the diesel forums with lots of great reading there.
