If you want the look of an original pump but reliability of a new
one. Remove the impellor from it and replace the original inlet
screen with a high cap pump plumbing it through the original and out
the back. Looks original, pumps like a modern one.
We were trying to get over to Joe and offer him our new hi-cap pump,
but could not get close enough as he was surrounded by other Amphis.
Joe is a real standup guy. Not everybody may know that he covered the
entire tab at the place in Byron. So be sure to thank him if you
haven't already.

P.S. - My entire trip was 3300 miles, 11 states (not including the
state of inebriation and confusion) WHEW!
