Need Aerospace Vacuum pump parts !!!!
I have a 3 vane Aerospace vacuum on a BBC. One of the vanes broke and I would like a new set. I called them and they said that I had a 4 bolt cover and they discontinued that one and could not get replacement parts. I would have to trade that one in and buy a new one. This is Bull...
These things are not cheap and for them to make a new version and just not sell parts for the old ones is wrong. I will not buy a new one from them just for this. Does anyone know if there are replacement blades that will work from a different brand?
Any help will be appriciated.

They do all their stuff in house to my knowledge.... Might be able to make you one (or maybe you could have a local Tool & Die shop do it) if you send one to them to copy.
