Over the past few years, it appears that Delco had become more of a repackager/reseller than a manufacturer of parts. In regard to the fuel pump, it appears that they have changed manufacturers several times. The last electric pump I installed in a CPI system was a Masters, but it was originally bought from Autozone. Whoever originally made it, I don't know. I do know, that in many circumstances, Delco buys their stuff from the same places in China as other companies do. I know of several parts, right now, that Delco offers for sale that they know are defective or do not meet OEM specs - but they are selling them anyway - apparently just to unload them rather than take a loss. That's a shame. I was an AC Delco fan for years - the name used to represent some insurance of quality. Not anymore. If I was rich, I'd sue them for some of the problems their defective parts have caused me. I am NOT rich, so the case is moot.
