6.5 General Motors engines had a setup like what you want. It may be possible to put your input shaft on the pump from a 6.5 GM engine, then hook up a few modules and sensors to make it work. I believe the GM pump uses a different gear mounting, but it looks kinda similar and might be the same. Hydraulic head and mount pattern for the pump body is the same for 6.9/7.3 IDI and 6.5/6.2. Look into it.
There probably isn't an easy solution though, either do a ton of custom work, or get a Powerstroke.

at like 6000 feet effective oxygen is 16.6% so if tuned at sea level you will be over fueling ... so as others have said raise the right foot 
on another note IF you have the E4OD there is a High Altitude PCM for it.

Also I think the IPs on the GM idi engines spin the opposite way to ours, at least that’s what I was told.

They sold relocation kits for the brain on the ds4 because originally it's mounted on the side of the ip, although this helped there was still problems.
They also used a laser inside to read the fuel flow, so if you're running dyed diesel or a wmo biofuel that isn't clear or Amber it won't run.

I don't know why anyone would want to complicate their Life
BTW GM runs same direction as Ford, but I see the Humor in the joke
here is the manual I have on the DS pump IF you just want to learn about it. Hopefully I can attach a file.......
EDIT: oh well, it goes thru the motions of adding the PDF Manual but I don't see that it really attached it

The less basic step, and the clear and obvious winner is to install a turbo, turn the fuel up, then not care what elevation youre at.
FWIW, where i live in ID and OR, i travel between 2k and 4800' all the time, the difference is negligable. Now when i went to the coast however, was like she was runnin on nitrous all the time.

When these engine first came out, there WAS a high elevation version and sea level version. The sea level version was rated at 195 HP if I remember right, the high altitude version is something like 185 or 165.

I was trying to upload the DS Pump manual I have for the Electronic Controlled Pump.... forums wouldn't do it, maybe you have to be a paid member to upload Files, it could be my file size is too Large.
Anyway... I found a similar manual here just not as extensive... http://www.stanadyne.com/dealerporta...nual/99646.pdf
