Thumbs up Feeding the addiction

pressure gauge and FPR shim is in.....065 4/40 brought it from 50 psi to 65 psi...feel a little smoother more responsive especially in stock...

reading past threads consensus looks like ideal is 70-75 psi.....thoughts/observatiions....

Thanx

p.s. hopelessly addicted!
