    I have a Hemi Predator on my DB30 and have decided it's time to remove the governor, low oil sensor, etc. I've done tons of searching and can't seem to find a definitive parts list anywhere.

    Governor on a Predator 212

    Is it possible to just adjust the Governor on a Predator or other clone 6.5 to just bump up the RPMs a little higher without having to remove it completely? I'd rather have the limit set steady at 4k RPM and restrict it there rather ran running unbridled. Thanks in advance.
