+1 for CSnyder, I will be testing (i.e. playing) around with a few plate profiles and posting results
(probably over the course of the next month or so)

ALSO, since we're here- as viewed from driver front fender- is there any better fastener to use on the top left of the afc housing than a button head cap screw? I'm currently running 3 different fasteners (dont laugh) on the 4 main afc attaching points and would like to narrow it down to one... but that one is in a ****ty spot underneath the injector lines and my current best tool is one of the small double-headed gearwrench ratchets with a 4mm allen bit; anything taller gets caught underneath the air horn too...damnit.
I don't use anything there. I use socket head cap screws for the other 3. I wish I remembered ththreads m6x1.0 maybe.Weston, it is definitely not the factory 160 horse gov spring; I have those in a bag from my 4k spring swap and had it out comparing last night before I benched/installed it. It is about the same lenght as the 160/175 spring (85psi as noted in the above pic for those not familiar), but the coil layout is more like the 180 horse spring (60psi shown above)... Both ends are closed and ground too, so im guessing there was a very specific application for it... When I get a chance I'll pull it back out and take a comparison pic

Yay! I have some memory left lolThey are M6x1.0
I used Allen headed bolts on my AFC. I have a Blue Point 5mm ball ended "T" handle that I bought just for this. Works good!
To the best of my knowledge even mild plates don't contact the governor arm til half travel or so. Sounds to me like you should be chasing springs and preload ajdustments.
