Does anyone sell Water Pump Kits for these other than New or Recoed Pumps? And,The 58 365 and 59 390s appear to share the same casting numbers for the heads, I appear to have a pair of each and they have the same size intake and exhaust valves, Do the 60-62s heads use the same size valves also? Thanks.
I bought mine off ebay for my 390. Brand new it was like 200 by the time I paid shipping and everything. Probably Chinese.
Get it sent out to Arthur Gould out of NY. I had a 57' 365" Caddy pump that was rebuilt by a local rebuilder, it leaked right away. I sent it back to be rebuilt again, that one lasted about 100 miles before leaking. I then sent it out to Arthur Gould and got it back within a week. They remachine the guts to accept a modern press in impellor & seals. You get it back, install it and forget about it no more problems. If I remember correctly the service was less than a rebuilt pump from Kanter.

Save me trying to search, what State is he in, better still what town also? Also good for a bump up...
Thanks for the replies but being in Perth sending a pump over your way for repairs and then back again isn't an option for me.Kanter doesn't appear to do Kits as such but I am on to a place called cadillac parts ltd that will do a kit. I am also going to look at doing a rotary seal and brg conversion as I need a couple of these pumps. I could buy a new unit but at the end of the day it's only the seal and brgs that are shot,the housings are still fine. Thanks for your input.
