Looking for oil pump for 68 buick electra 225 with 430
Looking for a new or rebuilt oil pump for a 68 buick electra 225 with a 430. Any ideas? I know rebuild kits are available, but this is for my dad who does not want to mess around with a rebuild. Beautifully original car! Thanks!

Hi Chris
Well, they're not cheap but I counted five NOS timing covers ones on ebay right now. I'm thinking it's the cover that's worn and causing the oil pressure to drop. These are $290-400ish and you'd still have to purchase the gear driven oil pump to install.
