Interesting.
Good on you for actually being able to figure it out.

How far would the timing be out if it's 2 teeth off?? I had the pump turned way to the passenger side when it was running before I took it apart.

6-8 degrees I believe

So as people stated the timing gears where off about 2 teeth so now I get to clean everything up and put it all back together. Everything has a lot of oil build up.

You're going to have to buy new tires from all the extra power now! A turbo still wouldn't be a bad investment though.

I'll be buying a turbo every one says it makes them a total different animal. I do have to thank all of you guys for helping me figure this out. If it wasn't for you guys and this forum the pickup would probably gone by now.

That's why we're here!

It's already a different animal! The turbo will make it a whole new species compared to how it was before!

Expect the turbo to pretty much double the power

Approximately 13.6 degrees. 6.8 degrees of crank rotation per tooth. With the pump way passenger, you were 'only' 6-8 degrees retarded.

Really? At what boost level? Any other Associated mods to go along with the blower?

Edited to add that at 12 pounds of boost,
my truck does feel twice as fast

 

[Thewespaul]

Since he is studded he can use all the boost his fuel system can produce, so 16-22 psi I’d say

Is 22psi the max on these motors?

 

[Thewespaul]

That’s about as much boost as you can make with the stock ip. Add more fuel and you can double that boost.

Is 22psi about at the limit for a worry-free, reliable daily driver? Is that about the max I'll be able to get out of the baby moose?

 

[Thewespaul]

It’s getting out of the efficiency range of the stock turbo, not really a reliability issue, just more boost out of the 30 year old design turbo just becomes diminishing returns.
