Noooooooooo
So if you're going to setscrew the pin, put a groove in the pin to index the screw.

CLB I see some quotes in your signature. One says "if it's made in china IT WILL FAIL" That is the only problem I see with this big block pump conversion, if the new big block pumps are of lousy quality. If you guys really get into this, you might have to tear them apart before you even run them to make sure everything is ok.

My original mechanical pump lasted almost 30 years. It will still pumping, it just started seeping around the seam of the pump onto the ground. After reading posts on here about the replacement pumps, I did not even consider putting a replacement mechanical pump back on it.

Rolling coal? Where?

bro, address this NOW.
if that arm falls into your gears, you can possibly destroy the engine.
i also had the idea of drilling and tapping a small set screw into the side to hold the pin.
this is a big liability concern of mine

another reason for not really being hot on this.
i actually had a dream where i was driving my brick, and this happened, and "the front fell off"
like completely blew the front clip off the entire truck

I checked out the pin and it hasn't moved, but I agree the pin needs to have a positive stop so it can't come out.
I didn't think much about at the time don't know how I didn't.

That's one scary dream my friend.

Rolling coal? Where?

Video didn't turn out so clear I guess, bit of a dunce moment.

Who does didgital imagine scanning here?
I someone has an oem pump that could be scanned, a cnc file made for a billet housing could be made and the guts procured to build one.
That's a 3 didgit build eyes closed.
Probably 5 hundo's
Freakin ferd/harvester
Anyone recall the binder employee herw years ago?

I believe that he uses Edelbrock pups. Some Chevy engines, including the early 6.2s, used a pushrod that went between the cam lobe and the fuel pump eccentric. They were round and about 1/2" in diameter as I remember.

Never done one of those aggravating things? Where the rod wants to slide down and you can't get the new pump in place? Until some old timer tells you about the bolt trick that holds the rod up in place. The good old days.
