The solid governor weight cage is only $40-50. The pump shops do not want a pump failure because of a rapid RPM change. So they put it back to factory specs. That way they are not liable for any thing that might go wrong down the road. Even the 1000 to 1 stuff.
In theory if you raced the engine and slowed it down a lot like in a car or pickup the non dampened weight cage could cause a governor failure. My thoughts are how many times do you race a tractor and pull it back to idle very often??? It is not something that happens with one time of doing it. We are talking about thousand of reputations. So It just about could never happen on a tractor.
My view it that many of the tractors that use the DB pumps only get used in very light conditions anymore. So the time is a bigger enemy of the components rather than usage. So I put the solid cage in. It will not fall apart because of time submerged in diesel fuel.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
