Here is the part number for the 3200 spring Bosch #1-464-650-366 you can get them at most fuel injection shops they might have to order it. It should run you anywhere from about $12-$20. It is one of the best improvements that I have made to my pickup. It used to fall flat on its face around 2600rpm's, now it pulls strong on the top end. Now for the old smokey pin you might just want to send him a PM his sign is OldSmokey he works at Dynomite diesel performance I believe, but dont quote me on that. I cannot remember what they cost. They also help out on getting more fuel. Man if you do all of these mods thats going to be one fast ford. I love that year 79 ford. I drove one when I was in high school I wish it had a cummins.

I Ordered the spring from a Fuel Injection shop in Denver for 13 bucks. I am thinking of Just this spring and my PS2000 system????? What do you think??
If that dont Break the Trans then i should be ok with the POD injectors and no LPG

Thumbs up

I say go for it, but what do I know? After installing the spring you are going to wonder why you didnt do it sooner. I know that I did. Now I think with the propane you are going to notice better results with the limited fueling that you have now. The number one reason is the fact that propane is just more fuel. When I dynoed with my stock turbo and big injectors I only gained 17hp/50tq because I didnt have enough air to burn the extra fuel.
Now that I have a bigger turbo I still dont know how much it helps because I have added more fuel to it so I am still lacking in the air department. Hopefully when I get my head problem fixed and get the twins on I can take it to get dynoed and see how much it really helps. After having water meth on for a little while I deffinatly like it alot better than my propane. Let me know how the results turn out.

I read somewhere that the Smokey pin is 250.00 bucks.. Nascar Mark at piers can custom grind a stock pin for ya for about 100.00 bucks, "exchange"... I hear that they work great...The pin is next on my list.
