Powermaster Pump

Who carries these? Can't find it so far. Looking for another one like this:

John, last 3 I got, I got them from Hank Terry. Haven't seen him in several yrs.
Someone may know where to find him. He may still have a source.

 

[GNVenom]

This one was from Hank. I used to buy them 25 at a time, back when he was building them. Last one from the original stash, but I have four turbo cars here...so having two or three spares would make sense.

Hank no longer builds them, probably for the last 15 years.

Wow! Shows how long I've been out of the loop!

Last time I saw one available was at oldbuickparts.com

they were on the website, but not anymore. Give them a call...

My pump and motor went out a week ago Saturday, picked up a couple of used units locally and neither worked. Sent mine to Richard Clark's to get rebuilt , hopefully.

Hank & his partner sold out everything to oldbuickparts along time ago & now they are out of them and nobody else sells them or ever did. Use to pay $150 shipped for them from Hank but if a guy can find a new one be prepared to spend $250 to $350 for one..

 

[GNVenom]

I would pay $120 in quantities. I believe we bought 20 or 25 at a pop. That was back in around 1995. Amazing how many of those went bad right out of the warranty period.

I wish I would have held on to a dozen or so. I keep saying that about all sorts of parts.

Truth is, we never thought we'd be needing GN parts 30 years up the road...

So Cardone must using old ones on the units they rebuild? I know they do make the ball. Kirban sells both and an oring kit for PM as well.

 

[Phoff]

Cardone rebuilds the motors but won't sell them separately.

Looks like that's a no brainer....get a unit from Cardone.

Looks like that's a no brainer....get a unit from Cardone.

Yeah ...good luck with that !
Dennis sends them cores when he has them...they don't stock them.

I sent one to cardone thay sent it back said thay couldnt rebuild it thay had no balls so wouldnt do any of it

 

[BEATAV8]

Spent my annual $7 in "need it or not" synthetic brake fluid yesterday to keep that pump running clean and happy.....

 

[drturbo69]

Hey John send me a message-might know where a new Hank motor is.

 

[GNVenom]

I managed to find one, so I'm all happy now. For now anyway.

 

[BILL HAINES]

John, I remember Jay having you build a test harness for these pumps, as one of his connections purchased a 100 or so left over pumps,but about only half would work as they has been sitting for so long.

 

[GNVenom]

I think those were dealer returns that he got from his parts department. GM says scrap them so the went his way. No doubt sold a ton of them. Good old days.
