turning up 12 valve

I know its not a ford but or 92' dodge needs more power. Posted onn the dodge forum adn didn't get anythings. makes me appreciate how good you guys are. So whats the best way to get max power out of with injection pump adjustment

I turned the diaphram 120*
3/4 turn CW star wheel
2 turns fuel screw(tried 3 but couldn't get idle low enought

It an inprovement but not what i want. How do you get the throw you in the seat feel with this truck?

If i remember correctly, you can buy a replacement regulator plate for that truck, and it should give you alot more fuel.

i thought that was for 94' and later trucks. I've heard you should be able to get 230-250 at the rear wheels with simple adjustments

I am on a site called NMTDR.com (NM Turbo Diesel Registry). Lots of those guys run 12V Cummins and I've seen over 500RWHP from some of them. I'd log on there and talk to those guys.
