Hi J:
Yes the ALDA is hooked up, working , I can't say for sure.
The changeover valve may be sooted up but I can't see why I would not have boost pressure regardless of the condition of the changeover valve.
My understanding of the changeover or boost over pressure regulator is that it reduces the amount of available fuel by decreasing supply at the IP.
If this is the valve you are referring to, then it should only come into play when an overboost condition exists and cause the ALDA to clamp down on the IP.
Since I don't achieve more than about 1 PSI , I don't understand how the changeover valve could cause a loss of 12+ psi of boost.
Thanks
