Just a word about Bob's rebuilt housings.  They are awesome!  He bead
blasts and paints them, then he cleans up and epoxys the surface where
the hose attaches (they are always pitted) so they they will never pit
again.  The one I got also had helicoils in every hole making the bolt
holes stronger than stock.  This is not your typical used part.  Good or
better than new.

Just FYI,
