Has anyone tried the valve /regulator idea outlined in these write ups?

Thanks Peter,
I read it at work yesterday and found it very good reading, Thanks for sharing, I has give me a nother project to work on but I'm going to cheat on one, JCotton has a dial-a-boost for $45 that lets you control boost in the cab.
I have started on rebuilding my spare carb, gLUP....With the help of Freddie's pages, reading this board and Doug Roe's book I think that I'M READY, I'm READY....

Rip into it Jim......but take it easy........I took three weeks on mine!

The spare is still stock, but I have all the new parts and rebuild kit for it.

Fredie,
I have not decided if I will do a full rebuild or not. I have removed the air horn & I'm in the process of cleaning it up. I will be doing the drilling into the sec pickups. I'm not going to mess with the primary meters (just clean) Every thing looks good so far, but I still do not know why it kept blowing the bottom seal on the Air/Fuel screw I think I will get the rebuild kit just so I can get the right O-rings for this. And I think that I will try this valve /regulator to stop my boost creep.
I have enough mods to take me into the high 14's if I can get it right.
Does any one remember the thread about boost increase to hp gain?
I have tried to search for it with no luck.
