generator governor

I want to use a 3 cyl. Geo (automobile) engine to power a ACgenerator. The engine mounts, cooling/exhaust, alternator drive , etc.are no problem but how do you get the engine to respond (more gas) toload changes? Is there a commercial source for governor's that willwork on automobile type engines? Thanks...Jon

I'm not sure. I can buy big-ass used motors here for the scrap price of the steel and copper content.
