The fuel pump on my '74 2.0 is no longer holding pressure and I'm looking to replace it. I've seen NOS pumps pop up occasionally on this forum , and various rebuilt units from retailers (Auto Atlanta, Parts Heaven, etc.), but I haven't seen any aftermarket replacement versions. Do they exist?

You do not need to move to the front.
