peak torque for my engine happens at 2400 rpm. Will this mod change it?
So for clarity, I see that you have used two nuts on the main spring of the governor as per this write-up. Don't suppose you grabbed a picture of it back in the throttle lever cage/piece??
Problem fixed!

There is two larger springs in the head of the pump that the governor has direct force on. The governor pulls on that lever that it slides into, and then that lever has two tough springs at the bottom of it which get compressed when you push more pedal. So there is actually quite the force that will be on whatever you use as your shim.

I am just a nooby student of VE pumps. Here's a link to Delrin specshttp://www.plasticsintl.com/datasheets/Delrin_150.pdfcompressive strength is 5200 psiDo you think the force on the shim is greater than that?
