From what I have seen, Walbros are around $120 to $150 depending on who you go to. Since this whole thing is about fake pumps and that site (fuelpumps.net) says that if you find a Walbro for a fraction of what they cost that that is a big red flag.

So how is it that same site carries a Walbro 340 for our cars at a fraction of the cost?

5CA400 Pump And Installation Kit
Availability: Usually ships the next business day.

5CA400Retail price: $77.24
You pay: $65.27

Do they just purchase that much more than the normal Buick vendor that they can bring the cost down that much? This is the only pump they show for our cars, is it not even a Walbro 340?

The 5CA400 is the OE replacement rated 27GPH @ 13.5V.
Average street price for a 255LPH HP Buick kit is $90-$120 depending on what they are bundled with.
Re-packaged Walbro pumps such as Holley, BBK etc. range from $120-$160.

If you have substantive facts to add about this fuel pump supply issue, PM me.

At this point in time, we have the issure pretty well defined, and that just leaves getting the word out to our friends. We can do that by making this thread a sticky for a while longer, and closing this thread so I don't have to babysit further posts.
