A/T advice 2nd request

[William Magliocco]

Just wondering if anyone can at least explain how the
governor works on these automatics found in a type 44.

No one replied to my recent post.  Sorry to have bored
the guys fretting about the spline counts on their
steering columns.

Really, I am trying to figure out if the governor
makes the shifting decisions or is it a regulator of
the top speed of the car.  The latter seems to be the
explaination of how certain GM slushers shift, but the
latter seems to explain how newer cars are set to an
abosolute max speed by the OEM.

What I have trouble understanding is how this
assembly, located inside the diff housing would
"communicate" with the tranny to tell it when to
shift.  I see no linkage or hydraulic line, much less
anything electrical that could make such a connection.
 I figure the diff is "downstream" from the
transmission, and has no real method to "talk" to the
tranny.

Again, anybody know what this does and if it can be
swapped with a plane jane gov from a non turbo 5k
slusher.  The latter variety is in good supply at the
pick & pull.
