RE: {Chrysler 300} Correct pump for 1957 C300?

["'Noel Hastalis' via Chrysler 300 Club International" <chrysler-300-club-international@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have been in occasional contact with Wayne. About 2-3 years ago I reached out to him on behalf of 3 or 4 of our 300 Club members looking for one of these 300-C Handbooks. Wayne reprinted and mailed copies to those members. I recall the cost was $35.

 

I find it very highly unlikely that Wayne is willing to part with his distribution rights. If anyone is interested in ordering one of his 300-C Handbooks, please email me and I'll ask Wayne if he's willing to produce any additional copies, as well as his current postage-included price.

Wayne’s book is a must-have for anyone serious about doing a correct restoration of a 300C. I realize that Wayne had a falling out with the club a number of years ago. But at this juncture, maybe the club can negotiate distribution rights for the book thru the club store, in exchange for a payment ?

I just looked up Wayne Graefen’s 300C Handbook and there is a whole section on this.  The notched pump Carter M2610S was introduced after engine # 3NE572962.  It also says replacement pumps with the same number didn’t have the notch.  So, Chrysler did introduce it and then decided it wasn’t necessary after all!

Wayne’s book is full of detail for those that want to concourse their car, or are just curious.

Or maybe this is an aftermarket or NOSR (new old stock replacement) one-size-fits-all that Carter made available ? I doubt that Chrysler Corp built cars with a fuel pump that needed this custom treatment.

Forwarding my response to John for others who may be interested.  Seems the notch wasn’t really necessary.  If anyone does have an interference issue, just file a bit off rather than search for the “right” pump.

Hi John

Looks like mine attached.  Years ago, I think there was something about the number stamped on the body to identify the 300C pump but I don’t remember what that was.  As you can see, the notch doesn’t make that much difference as installed on my car but it is there to clear the front of the block.

I've heard stories about a notch in 300C pump bodies.  Does this look correct?
Thanks for your input,  John Lazenby
