[Healeys] Parts from UK BJ8

[Ricchardd Mayor]

The rotary vane pump was used in the 100/6 - 26D - engines.  It caused many problems.  It is not suitable for any use, contrary to what someone may be trying to sell you.

I have had better luck with DHL or Royal Post shipping for reliability of delivery in the past... seems customs works in concert with USPS & DHL (Deutsche Post) to protect USPS, so FedEx and UPS sometimes can get hung up in customs.  It may have improved, not sure....
