In other words they don't give a S#@T what they look like. Not a big deal to have the new cans plated correctly. But your suposed to buy that story [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

I hope my bad judgement, my bad experience tells EVERYONE here to be wary of
GOAT HILL restoration quality.......

Now Ive got my original 70 Z28 pump and another 69 &quot;426&quot; pump that are NOT
show ready and I just dont know what I'll do now......

Sorry to hear about that Chuck. I have a few friends that were disappointed as well.

Re: Original AC fuel pump
 

I just got two 40768 pumps that a customer bought from him and then shipped to me for his project and to use the best of the two. Looked ok but the cans were not indexed correctly and now cannot hook up the carb to pump lines! Paid big money for them.

Re: Original AC fuel pump
 

We had 5 of the 727 pumps done about 10 years ago...it took a long time, but they came out ok. All functioned properly and the plating seemed ok to me, but I'm no resto guru [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I would follow the lead of guys like Mike and others on the best sources in today's landscape.

Ha Rick!
I had the same problem with a 768 pump I got from him last year and was told by him that I was the only one that complained about the indexing problem.
Tried to tell me I must have a bad line kit until I sent him a picture of his pump beside an NOS one.
He did eventually get me a correctly indexed one after about 6 months.
I'd definitely contact him and get him to send out 2 replacements.

Good info Chris...When I called him asking for a 470 he asked for all kinds of info regarding the car like &quot;what's the casting # on the block&quot;,&quot;what type of pulleys&quot; &quot;what's the coil #&quot; and the build date...when I told him it was a pilot car with no date on the TT he claimed &quot;It's not uncommon to have a repop TT&quot; [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img] WTF!
Plating was not correct, indexed fine, looked like an old used pump.
I eventually got it but not without an inquisition.

Difficult person to deal with.

I've had similar problems with goat hill. Had to send mine back and it took 8 months to get it back round 2... still not 100% happy. Bottom looks more clear then gold. One of the worst industry experiences I've had. Do not use goat hill.
