Richard, if the unit bolts up the same to the front housing and to the
electronic metering pump (or mech pump), you could leave it up to the buyer
to figure that out. My concern it that it won't fit.  Does your unit actually
meter the oil, or just supply the oil from another reservoir?
I have a couple 91 and 93 metering pumps sitting around, and don't know how
the earlier units work. Your market would be bigger to the car modifiers
(and maybe us) if you let the stock metering unit keep control.
I suspect an electronic control could be put together to replace the ECU
commands if necessary.
Just a thought.

Marc all this thing does is interrupt the oil supply from the 
sump and changes the supply to an external tank holding two cycle
oil. Any oil injection or metering must be done by the stock pump.
