Not sure what the fuel pump situation but the supplier's content from the other forum is questionable. I recently watched this video recently of Holley "NOT making carbs in the USA..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_hFKRDDP_o

Believe you can tell which pumps are bad by the type of screws used. There was a ‘Gil’s Garage’ or EarlyBird’ article, but I can’t find it.

Wow! I just contacted the supplier. They stopped selling the "New" 9350 made in china pumps because they were cheap chinese crap. If you have one of them be aware they are known to fail. Or not work right out of the box. I have an American made and then refurbished in America 9350-R on the way.

Is it an Airtex? Don Hyde (Ford Craft) in Texas fixes new ones so they work. He may fix used ones. 972-432-4636. If you do call him, let me know what he says.

This is from a supplier posted on another FORUM - Mechanical fuel pumps:
ALL new pumps as of 5 years ago are made overseas and are WAY over pressured for older carbs. Your choices are, have your old one rebuilt, or install a 1-4lb regulator.
We have dozens of folks a week calling in and they have blown the gaskets out of their carbs or have massive flooding.
ALL carbs that say NEW are from China or worse. Holley and Edelbrock have not made a carb in the US since 2000. Someone in China is using the Carter name on metric copies.
Pay thru the nose and use original carbs made here.
There is no quality left. If all these suppliers have to offer is CHI-COM junk they should mention it in their cataloging.
You will need to find an original core and have it re-done to modern specs.

Find a used pump that was made in America/Mexico, and have it rebuilt. CASCO is paying $50 for American/Mexican cores, because of issues with pumps made in China.
