Have a search online, there's a firm in lincolshire who will overhaul your pump but won't sell the repair kit. I don't have a working spare at the mo, but have some useable castings if that's any help..

There is an eBay advert with two for sale.

I regret I don't have a spare.

Re: GS Water pump

Thanks guys , after looking long and hard I found a spare one in my dads old garage ! After a long afternoon I fitted it and sorted out many water leaks finishing very late Saturday evening ! The test drive Sunday morning (to Brooklands ) was a success ! With only a small weep from the copper washers on the heater pipe ! My next job to do !!!
