There was a guy selling bulk of these before on another forum. I'll try have a look for who it was. Are they all universal?? I'm think of getting one too, to pump a bit more fuel in just to be safe.

I dunno bout the bosch... most people have always recommended Walbro as the way to go so I went with a Walbro GSS-341 which I think is almost equivalent to the Bosch 040. I paid $150 for mine and it took my mate 3 hours to fit. Awesome pump... still goin strong :-)

The bosch is about twice as big as the walbro and flows more at higher pressure and I think draws less current too..

I installed my 040 myself without a problem but i'm sure the walbro would be a bit easier (smaller) and flow much better than the stocko..

The walbro seems to have a higher pitch whine than the bosch also. (my mate has one in his aristo)

That be great if you could Chris. They are a universal component. Ive tried Coventry and a few automotive shops but no luck. The more well known workshops i know will charge an arm and leg for one. There's a few on the net but sorta need it in the next few days as the cars going in for a tune on the 8th.

Hey Nickel, have you tried just getting one over from the eastern states? I bought one about six months ago from a trader on ns.com, cost me about $20 less than anywhere in perth and was here in 2 days...
