7400/2 to 6100

rvitko:

Is this feasable? I believe my 7400/2's have the old-style driver which would also have to be upgraded (and the impellor bore may need to be drilled out).

Also, if each driver for the old-style pumps was matched to the individual pump, is there a way to tell which pump the driver goes to?

Basically in the old days the alarm was hand tuned and it was a 3 step process of restricting the intake with a special fitting to 5% and setting the alarm, then checking that the alarm went off went off when the prop was stopped by catching it by hand and then checking that it went off when the pump ran dry. They generally work on any pump but the alarm sensitivity is the issue. You basically need $100 worth of parts, the driver will probably be fine.

So its just a matter of:

1) swapping out the transformer
2) upgrading the impeller (a swap or disassemble the stock one and rebuild with stream impeller parts?)
3) putting on the stream prop "cage"

Is there a convenient Art# that encompasses all of these items?

1) Transformer is unchanged, you need the following-
