Hello,
I have a 1983 Ford 6.9l that has a 1986 engine installed in it. It has an injection pump for an "International "S" engine installed in it and so has the governor speed set at 2750 RPM. I believe that I would be better served with a ford spec'd injection pump.
As you might imagine the truck is painfully slow running at this speed. I would like to know if I can merely install a new governor spring to get me up to the factory rated 3300 RPM (Or even 3800 to push it a bit!) or are there other concerns about how this pump is calibrated.
My injection pump ID is 69-8635 which is for an international engine. Is it possible to rebuild this pump to ford specifications (or calibrations) ???
Should I just break down and buy a rebuilt ford pump and try to ebay my existing one?
Second, does any one have a supply of governor springs for the DB2 injection pump? I am pretty sure I need a 6.2L chevy governor spring. Where can I get one at a reasonable price.
Thanks for any help you all can provide!
