Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) NO cam plate

[thaile]

I had heard of people taking out the camplate in the pump altogether and was wondering how much of a power increase this gave them. Does the mileage on the truck go way down. Also I like the smoke so how much can I expect to get by taking the plate out altogether. I know that is quite a few questions but whatever help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

I took mine out for a while. But I later ground it and put it back. Smoke was real black and hard to control. But power is way up and so are egts.

if u like the smoke, then pull the afc spring out, pull the plate, and put 4K springs in. Or better yet, just pull the hole afc housing off, lol! u Can break a pin that holds the rack in, but i think that u will hit the plug in front of the pump first

anybody know what kind of horsepower increase one would get by removing the plate.

I gain a tiny bit over the #4 plate when I took it out, I burn almost all my fuel so I can watch it in the mirror and EGT, didn't see enough difference to keep it that way.

I went from 139. 9rwhp - bone stock to 258. 6rwhp just by taking out the plate and properly adjusting the AFC... . not gutting it.
