I bought 2 pumps looking exactly like this one ( marked MOPROD) a few years 
ago. They were about 1/2 the price of an SU pump . One lasted 2000 miles and 
the second 5 miles-----had to push the car home but fortunately was only a 
block away. Now paid the extra and put in an SU with electronic points and 
all is well so far but only 1500 miles on it The plastic bodied pumps do fit 
in the original location and on the original mounting.
