Hi Guys...

I would think you would have better luck grinding the bottom of the ring to fit the contour of the pump top.

Any of the resto parts places have an aluminum ring for the bennett 541 that has close enough contour that will work. The plain simple flat aluminum ring will work fine also, the top is flatter than it looks. I have done a bunch of these pumps over the years and use the cheap aluminum flat ring with no problems....Rich B
