Anyone here owns a 3B with High Altitude Compensator? It has become unavailable unless someone sells one. I need some specifications that could allow me to recreate them.
Whoever here has one on your truck, please do the following for me:-
1) measure the protruding portion of your HAC and give me your approximate elevation. Vernier Caliper should suffice; no need for dial gauge.
2) if you are able to hook your free ended hose to a hand mightyVac pump, record the protrusion change. Make a table at 1”/mg interval. Every inch of mercury corresponds to 1000 feet of elevation.
I need to know how much it moves per 1000 feet and I can work backwards and build an appropriate aneroid capsule.
