Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) afc spring kit help

[hereismylife]

Ok I got bd kit. I am wondering why is there 2 springs? I did read and search this. I only come up with one is for the 215 pump and the other is for the 180 pump. I am wondering why both won't work with my 180 pump?



Is there something I am missing?

IIRC the springs should be of different spring rates ??? i think one is stiffer and one is softer so you can play around with different boost response rates?

Well I got the softer spring in today and we will see how it goes. I do see that the softer newer spring is longer than the old spring. Anyhow I have to see what the difference is. Right now I have the spring as loose as it will go ( star wheel as front toward to front of truck) I hope this give me the most power as I can get.

the spring isnt so much about power. a gutted afc would deliver the most throttle transition power but at a cost of black smoke.
