Kent,
Thank you for your suggestion and concern. I have a rebuild kit ready to install in the NOS fuel pump. I did plan to rebuild it, prior to installing it. I think that my fuel lines to could be manipulated to fit the parallel inlet and outlet of the NOS pump. If not, I will take your suggestion and change the orientation of the ports. However, I just want to make sure this AC 429, is compatible with my 53 216. Hope to catch with you, when you get down to Mesa again.
Thanks,
Rugo
