I know this may sound strange but I bought these and have not seen them close up. I am thinking of doing these in the Texaco Firechief and Skychief set. But because I have not seen them to get any numbers off of so I anm asking do they look the same? I am new to this so be nice and clear LOL
Thanks
Randall

Thanks for the info guys. The pumps are up in and near Indy and won't make to the south until April.

Pure-Powder I was really hoping they were the same, but don't worry my buddy who is bringing them can dump them if I decide to go that way. laugh

Gilbarco 996 is what I thought they were but one has a trim piece running vertical on the left side that is not on the other. I have Jack's book ordered so I'm sure that will help.

Again thanks for the clues and looking forward to asking more questions
Randall

THAT VERTICAL TRIM PIECE IS MORE THAN LIKELY A HOSE RUB GUARD ON THE CORNER. EACH SIDE CORNER HAD ONE ON THE HOSE SIDE.
