Hi Paul,
I received what is left from my pump, and there is only one thing wrong
with your work that I can see: It's too perfect :). I was under the
impression that engineers can't do anything with their hands. You are
the exception. Thank You and let's hope it works better than stock pump.

Thanks Bulent. I hope so too.

BTW the six port intake manifold flanges are done and I will pick
them up in an hour or so. I will bring at least one to OSH
for show and tell. I also found a supplier for the motor mount
cup type weld fittings I think. He happened to be right next door to
the Santa Paula airport. He invented a machine for automatically
welding tubes to flat plates. The welds have to be seen to be 
appreciated. They are perfect. 

He also has a mandrel tube bender so we will see what we can do 
on intake pipes. No dies for 1-3/8 water pipe bends yet but
we will see what we can do on those.
