So I figured what the heck, why not tear down the old broken 1965 B18 and put in new stuff. So I got it back from the machine shop and will be refreshing everything. One of the main problems was that the oil pump had seized when the previous owner had it. I found a replacemnet pump on eBay and bought it. It looked just the same as mine, until I went to install it. A closer comparison of the two shows that there are some differences in the inlet/outlet pipes, the ebay pump is actually taller (deeper) and there is a 1/4 in wide x 1/8 deep (approx) channel on the mounting flange of the eBay pump that isn't on the pump that broke. . The part number for the broken one I took out is 418282 and the one I bought on eBay was 1000254. Vintage imports lists the part number as 1218706. IPD lists it as 2A9542. In the one view IPD shows on their website for the replacement pump it looks exactly like the pump I bought on eBay. I can't find a part number in the manual for the pump.
Can anybody tell me which part number pump to use. Has anybody put in an IPD pump in a B18 engine?
