My brother-in-law has a realy nice crew cab International Low-Pro 4700 with the IH DT 466. Nice truck, but needs a serious boost of power. It won't pull his horse trailer (really, really big) half as well as his 2002 HO with goodies I installed. He needs the bigger truck for the weight, room, and brakes, but can't hardly get it above 65 mph.



The DT 466 has the tried and true Bosch P-7100 pump, so I know there's more in it, but I can't find anyone that will tell me which cam plate I need to install. I've already done the simple method of sliding the plate forward in tiny increments, and there have been small power gains each time, but still not enough. I slid the plate forward . 030" the first time, and . 040" the second, . 070" total forward movement from stock.



EGTs have remained in check, so I feel confident that the truck would still benefit from more fuel, I just don't know how to get it.



Any P-7100 wizards out there with any ideas?
