The aerospace is not hard anodized like the moroso or star machine pump. Therefore they wear quicker imop. I bought the star machine pump. Far superior imop.

We use a GZ super pump pro and it works great for us! Pulls good vacuum right at idle in our 636 TS engine.

Aerospace pumps do wear fast as stated and if it is the older pump they don't sell parts for them.

I have a aerospace pump on mine so far it works fine. The only problem I have had out of it,I forgot to put the pop off valve on it at first .
