Here is central IA we had a pretty bad windstorm earlier this week. Our little town was spared serious damage but out of power for the last couple days. We have two military generators, one is a 1945 gas unit with a mechancial govenor that runs like a watch. The other is a 70's deisel that has a complicated hydrualic over electronic govener that is a PITA.

I think the biggest problem is the electronic control.
Is there any place in the midwest I could take this beast ahnd have all the mil stuff stripped off and a mechcanical govener put on it? All I need is a throttle and volt/amp/cycle gauges and we can take it from there. Any mil genset experts out there? Thanks!
