Yeah, this is the guy who has posted the most info on our systems.

There really aren't any gross differences between the PSs used in any of the D-
Jet cars in the same years. They all consist of a transformer with 2 coils, a 
primary and a secondary, a movable core, a spring, an aneroid bellows, and, for 
70-71 only, a diaphram. There's no temperature measurement done in any of them.

They varied details of construction over the years, but none of that really 
matters. The changes made for different cars were just to change the adjustment 
and shape of the movable core.
