<VV> Fuel pumps

[corvairs]

    There's a point here that everyone is missing. If you find a 
1960-early 61 fuel pump. at the least, it's 30+ years old or worse. The 
fact that it's new is not good enough. If people are worried about 
premature fuel pump failures then using 40 year old "NOS" fuel pumps 
(especially after they've been modified) is not the way to go.
I understand some folks posting that it's worked great for them for 
years but some of us have to remember that we've been doing this since 
the 1970's (or earlier) and those parts weren't so old then.

Besides, how many of those 1960-61 pumps can there be out there? I don't 
see them. Lon
