nope no idea.  Talked to a guy about whether to rebuild or buy and he says he never rebuilds anymore he either buys rebuilt or new it just wasn't worth the hassle so decided that's the way I'm going to go( sounded way easier too).  Good luck with your rebuild

I wanted to send mine to Gary for a rebuild before the Gathering in WI this past summer but did not get it out.  I tried a little home fixing but too easy to screw it up.

Here's a link to his work.

      Might be just as easy to trade the old  one for a new/rebuilt one.   All of the C-3 VETTE sponsors carry them. I have purchased two for my cars. Very well done and tight.
