Thread: MFI pumps and rebuilds - who but Gus?

    MFI pumps and rebuilds - who but Gus?

    I have heard a lot of people talking about Gus at PFI being the only option for an MFI pump rebuild for Porsches. There were also rumblings in terms of what happens when Gus retires? Has anybody ever used Wes Ingram?

    I'm using Henry at Supertec. I'll let you know how it turns out, but I have no doubt that everything will be great. Seems to me that he's an untapped resource for a lot of stuff. The guy doesn't seem to get enough props from what I can tell. In any event, I am trusting him with my stuff (MFI pump, t/b's, heads, stacks, case, twin plug conversion).

    I've only heard Henry advertise the stack and TB rebuilds, not a pump rebuild. Does he actually get into the pumps now? Can he do space cam conversions?

    Yes, he does pump rebuilds, an I've believe he's been doing them for a decade or two. Yes, he can do the space cam conversions. And, he is very competitive. I think people might start to wonder why they're paying so much elsewhere. Maybe he doesn't have the "name" in some circles?

    Anybody on Pelican knows he is awesome. I've never heard a single bad word about his work.

    What about Otto's Venice? He's certainly worked on more early 911 MFI units than...

    ...an Alfa specialist?

    All I am saying is that I see very little definitive information or word of mouth in terms of PUMP rebuilds outside of Gus. At least the Alfa specialist specifically calls out Bosch and Kugelfischer Porsche pumps as items he works on.

    Got it. Not trying to cause trouble. Just expanding my knowledge base.

    That being said-- call Otto. You won't be sorry.
