  Actually I thought it was just called setting the belt tension.  Hillbilly 
tuning was pencil-line timing the pump over a period of trial and error 
days to generally end up with approximaltely the "performance setting" 
for earlier pumps or about an extra .05mm on the later ones.  Among 
other stuff that basically resembles gasser "street tuning."
