I took this off a Model T saw rig. After 3 hours of cleaning I am wondering if it's worth anything?

That looks like a Kingston governor off of a Fordson Tractor. I have a couple of those laying around here somewhere. Being that the Model T and the Fordson use the same timer and timer brush, it wouldn't be very difficult to adapt a governor intended for a tractor onto a car engine. It would make the engine alot more effective for stationary power.
