if you're not into sled pulling, a rotary pumped Cummins will do fine. Change it out to a 3.55 gearing and your truck will tow anything.

if you have a rotary pump or VE pump you turn the fuel up by turning a screw clockwise inward ... it is located just behind the pump housing and just under the top cover of the main part of the pump .. its kinda behind the little U-shaped air tube that comes from the intake of the head ... it dont take very much to make a lot of difference .... also it has a soft aluminum cover over it to keep people from messing with it ...kinda looks like a pen cap .... its kinda hard to get to... sorry dont have any way to upload pics right now ... there is a guy on here that has a complete breakdown of the VE pump but i cant think of where i found it at
