3K GSK = soft pedal?

Installed my Piers 3K GSK today. Not too bad, kind of a PITA to see/work through the side. Think it was better than going through the top would have been.

Truck runs great, but the accelerator is quite a bit 'softer' than before. Any ideas? I set the springs at 0.065" which was what I measured before I took them out. No problems revving to about 3400 rpm. Do I just need to learn to live with the pedal?

Other thoughts:

1. Piers instructions could have been a little better. The ones I got for the AFC spring were excellent, I guess I expected the same level of detail. Main thing was how to get the spring retainer to back off to where I could get a screwdriver on it.

2. I didn't find ANY shims. Is this normal?

3. My fuel shut-off solenoid boot is got a hole in it toward the bottom of the plunger arm. Don't suppose I can buy just the boot? (That would be too easy)

Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.

Eric
