Default Coe

The COE trucks and some of the delivery truck chassis were equipped with a Carter updraft carburetor, hence the different model of governor.

Default Spelling ?

Well, both versions of the Chevrolet Master Parts Catalog I checked use the spelling governor. Does that help or just add confusion?
The Chevrolet Catalogue of Major Assemblies CMA-01 seems consistent in using governor.
Note that the Canadian printed Catalogue of Major Assemblies uses the spelling catalogue and the USA printed Master Parts Catalog uses spelling catalog. The never-ending list of English language "localizations", or should that be "localisations"?
