After cleaning it up I was able to see a part number. Looks like its a 40018. Unfortunately it looks like there is no new, direct replacement, so I bought NOS.

I'll try that. I wasn't planning on buying the Zip part. I really just wanted to get an idea of what I needed before going to the parts store, because I'm not sure how many fuel pumps I might have...

Fuel Pump for NOM 1963

I need a new fuel pump for my SWC. The engine is a 350 out of a 1970. The fuel pump does not look like a 63 or a 70 from looking at pictures. The closest match was a 1967 327 fuel pump. Any ideas...

Whats your beef with iPods? I’ve got an iPod touch which is basically an iPhone without the phone, it has 128gb storage and didn’t require a contract or that I sell a kidney to buy it.

I don’t like anything about the C7s styling, to me it just doesn’t look like a Corvette. I’ve got a 63 and a 2002, if I wanted a C7 I’d get one. I bought a C5 because I think it’s the best looking...

I just bought a C5 last year because I have always loved the look. There is no doubt that the C6 and C7 are better performers, but I just don’t like the looks of them. To me the C7 just doesn’t...
