When you say "nobody", have you tried Jim Carter's & NAPA? They seem to be
my first likely choices. And, even though I haven't used them in a long
time, Obsolete Chevrolet in Nashville, GA might be able to help; they sold
me a single 216 cast iron piston (to requested weight, no less) when I
needed it (I bought a set from an old man locally, & found later that one
piston was a 235 standard vs. a 216 oversize like the rest).

Subject: [oletrucks] Fuel Pump Rebuild Kits and Frustration
>Does anyone know of a source for fuel pump rebuild kits? I have a dual
action fuel pump for a Chevy inline ('52 to '57) I'd like to rebuild myself
(being the do-it-yourself type) and nobody, I mean nobody, will sell a
rebuild kit for it. It's a very easy rebuild. Several vendors are happy to
exchange it for a rebuilt one, but will not sell the rebuild kit....and are
very frank about not offering a kit. I'm getting the sense that someone has
a little monopoly going on out there...maybe not. It's like offering a
rebuilt motor, but not offering the parts so you rebuilt it yourself. Any
suggestions? Thanks.
