The original IP off this engine is trashed due to a failed ball bearing on the main camshaft. Due to the excessive runout, the governor and torque capsule are garbage on the original pump. Since this is IP #3 on this engine, I'll take my chances fiddling with the ALDA. Not really in the mood to replace the IP again or spend money on #4.

It may not be the factory fuel curve, but it beats the heck out of what it was doing, and 25+mpg out of a 1980s barge doing 85+ on the highway is pretty respectable in my book.
