i am turbo charging my 5l engine and have bought the top cover with boost compensator from a 2lt mechanical injection pump, now my 5l has an altitude compensator and i want to know if the compensator top will bolt straight on and work.
i think the boost compensator adjusts the governor lever to alow more fuel and the altitude compensator moves the governor lever to cut the fuel.
does anyone have a pic if the 5l pump with cover off? i can throw up a pic of the boost compensator cover.
would be good to know if it fits so i dont have to pay the specialist.
here is the inside of boost compensator

and this is the 5l altitude compensator
