Yes you're right, anything 30 years old is going to need some work. Now, is an 826 a money pit? I don't think so, unless it's been abused. Everything behind the flywheel is the same as an 856. Now, on the 358, they can be made to run, but they do not like to get overheated. That was one of the main reasons for cylinder sleeve packing failure. I wouldn't swap out the pump, the one it's got is capible of around 150 hp with a turbo, and it takes about two minutes to turn up. Besides, that pump is a real oddball, and it's hard enough to find someone to work on them, can't imagine what it would take to find performance parts. Many of these had M&W turbo kits installed, so you should be able to find one. That's what our's has, the screw's been turned a couple turns but still has plenty of screw left, it'll do 110.
