Oil pump change - I broke something
As I removed the oil pump, I broke the keyed sleeve lock that holds the drive shaft to the input shaft of the oil pump (didn't know it was there since everything is coloured black with oil).
It broke into 3 pieces. Please tell me this is not out of production
Anyone got the part number for this piece? And is it interchangeable on all small blocks?

Either of those shafts, shipped to where I live will cost me a total of 83$. Unless I can find it in some shop for a reasonable price here (which I highly doubt I will) I will stick to using the GM replacement.

If that breaks, no oil pressure...not good.

You should be able to have someone stick it in the mail to you from anywhere in the U.S. for the grand sum of cost plus 98 cents postage, which is the current rate for the first 1/2 oz. going overseas. Why $83?

Its the shipping that Summit charges for it. Its about the only site that takes an international credit card.
I have been dying to buy an LT4 knock module from ws6store but they require a US credit card so I'm stuck there too.
I spoke to a colleague and he said his friend might have an ARP piece at his shop. Will have to find that out first.
I know with more stress its more likely to break, and I don't think I will be going back to using a plastic piece. I have put too much money into this build, and a lot of busted knuckles and gunk in my eyes to skimp on anything when I have made it this far.

I am a Bahraini living in Bahrain
I will have to drop into a local speed shop and see if they have the ARP piece in stock. If not, I will sort out a way to purchase it from Summit and get ripped off by their delivery charges.
