Fuel Pump and Alternator ID

[Mark H.]

Can somone help me ID these parts? The Fuel Pump came off a '64. Taken apart, with the bottom bowel-shaped cover off and looking at it with the valves vertical, the inlet is at the 11:00 position and the outlet at the 5:00 position. Over the top valve is stamped "FP1267" to the left of the top valve is stamped FP1159. At the left of the bottom valve is an "A" rotated 90 degrees to the right, in a circle. Around the flange (?) where the screws hold the bottom half of the pump to the top is stamped "Made in USA"

On the top half of the pump, inside the area where the pump mounts to the engine, is stamped "351" I can find no other markings on the top half of the pump.

The alternator number is 110597.

Thanks, and Happy Easter!!

I can't help with the fuel pump. I may be able to help with the alternator, but the number which you provided is lacking 1 digit of being a complete alternator part number.

sorry!

The missing number is between the "0" and the "5." As best I can tell, it is another 0 (1100597), but it is so faint I missed it the first time. It could also be a 9 (1109597). Thanks!

GM #1100597 is an alternator which was widely used across Chevrolet car lines during the 1973-75 period. It is a 61 amp unit which was used, primarily, for A/C and HD alternator applications. It was used on some 1975 Corvettes. This is an internal regulator-type unit. However, since drive end frames are interchangeable for internal and external regulator alternators, it could have been used by an alternator rebuilder to "build up" an external regulator-type alternator.

For the most part, the part numbers found on older alternators, most of which have been through the "commercial alternator rebuilder process", are "anachronisms" and have very little meaning or value except to restorers looking for that all-important, "correct" original number. Everything else about the alternator, internally and externally, may be "incorrect", but as long as it has the right "number", it's a treasure worth big bucks. Makes me wonder sometimes.
