Ok, very little information about messing with the droop screw.
Looks like some of the newer IPs have removed the droop screw all together.
I already have the EGT and boost gauges installed, so what would be the drawbacks of basically removing it? Means getting more fuel in the lower rpms, but...
Well, I just drove the latest truck 360 some odd miles home the other day.
M109A1 is the latest to join the herd.
The others are;
1969 Kaiser M35A2 - full cargo top
1971 AM General M35A2 - cab top, has cargo top, and I just got the cargo bows!
1971 AM General M35A2 - no tops yet

Both trucks whistle, but one will whistle a LOT more then the other.
I have a 69 Kaiser that has the -1D motor with the D turbo. So I know the difference in turbos and...
I will hopefully be going to pick up my three trucks fairly soon.
But I need one measurement that I didn't see in the manuals.
All the trucks are WO/W, and I need the length from the front bumper to the rear of the rearmost part of the rear tire.
Reason is, I will be using a trailer that has...
I will be going to KLIEVER ARMORY NEAR PORTLAND AIRPORT to pick up three deuces in the near future.
Anyone need anything there or near Portland hauled south?
