summit sells the rebuild kits, but I don't believe they have a shaft seal if that's where yours is leaking. the rebuild kit is how I turned my holley blue into a holley red (low pressure) by using a holley red rebuild kit.

the holley blue I started out with was locked up. ended up being the vanes were somewhat rusted to the hub that drives them. I broke the rust loose, cleaned the vane/hub assembly, and put it back together with a holley red rebuild kit. works fine, 3.5psi output. been running it for a few years now. someday I hope to replace it with a carter, but for now the rebuilt holley is still kickin!

Don't mean to maybe ask a stupid question, just saw ya'll where on the subject of fuel pumps, and wondered if you cold tell if there's a way to tell what lb. fuel pressure, the pump was, I have a Bosch, 39, 90 etc., is it marked any where?,are do I and can I have it tested, need min. 90lb :confused: Thanks.
