Default Hartzel governor F-3-1A fit a 7A or 6A?

Just wondering if anyone here would know if a Hartzel F-3-1A prop governor would fit on the back of my io-360 and not conflict with anything.

I have a voice mail into Hartzel already, but I thought I would ask here also.

I'm also using this on a Hartzel Prop: Model HC-C2YK-4

Thanks for any help.
Chris.

It's a pretty big governor, and has the arm moving is a different plane of rotation than the Woodward or the PCU5000. I know it wouldn't work without a cutout, and even then, am not sure if it would without modification. We have one on our Cardinal, but it has the "j" mod, which is a Hamilton Standard (short) cap on the Hartzell body. No one had a clue about it for the longest time, I finally found the paperwork in the Hartzell manual.
