All that will do is retard the timing. It will not change the volume or rate of fuel delivery, but it will make make the injection late (retarded). I'm afraid that guy is a bit confused about the IDI's DB2 IP.

If are serious about wanting more fuel from you DB2 IP. Go to oilburners.net. PM "Agnem" (Mel Agne) and ask about his "Moose Pump." Much better quality and service than you can get with Ken at DPS. He doesn't advertise, he doesn't have a website. He basically does this as a service the IDI community and he's products are head and shoulder's above DPS.

Yes, rotating the IP towards the driver's side will advance the timing. But, don't go beyond 10.5 degree's BTDC. That's the max, otherwise you'll be eating glow plugs and you'll start losing power. Ford's spec is 8.5 BTDC. A degree advanced (9.5) is what most will use.
