Harry,
I've taken my pumps to the local auto parts store and ask them to get my pump rebuilt. It took about a week and I got mine back and all clean rebuilt. It was less than $50.

The last couple I rebuilt my self. I purchased the bearing and ceramic seal and did some pressing out. My little hydraulic Harbor Freight press worked just fine. I bead blast the casting, mount flange, impeller and plate then pressed the pieces back together. Be sure to measure the flange position for repressing back on in the same spot. It's not difficult at all. Somebody on the internet had a step by step procedure to complete this tack. It is even in one of my old Chevy repair manuals. At a relaxed pace it took about 2 1/2 hours not counting paint drying time. For 50 bucks it's not worth the effort. I just wanted to do it myself.
