Fun stuff Kevin!! Nice simple design. Love the little u-joint coupler.
What's the fan all about? Just came with the motor?

FWIW, here are a couple other places, like Grainger, where you can find all kinds of componentry.

Can only be considered continuous duty when used with the fan

K W That is a really thought out design. Bottom plate simple for mounting with motor to computer. I will need one or two kits just in case I deside to do another one. I do think I have a few more gallon Bell kits.

This kit has gone over very well and I have 2 kits left until I get more mounting plates made. Hopefully, they are on their way relatively soon.

I will take one. PM sent. Jim

It looks like a great kit. I don't think it would be a problem in a pump with a shelf mount though. Like a Wayne 505. Just put the computer on the shelf and run the bolts through. Someone may need to cut a larger hole for the drive coupler though.

I'm going to assume that this setup wouldn't work on offset drive computer? Like the ones used in a Wayne 80. I was just wondering about it.

The offset drive portion can be removed and then install Kevin`s kit.

Yes, the offset has to be removed and the gear taken off the bottom of the Veeder Root.
On those pumps where the bottom of the variator is obstructed, this kit won't work in the manner it was designed. BUT--I was recently sent some photos from another old gasser that used the mounting plate with longer spacers and a different coupler to make it all work!

That design setup is what we will be working on next!

My kit arrived in great shape. Thx. Jim

I was sold out of the mounting plates, but I just got another batch I and can fill any orders again. I plan on having my display stand at Peotone, for demonstration purposes. If anyone wishes a kit to be delivered to Peotone, please let me know ahead of time, so I can be sure to bring enough along.

Here is a photo of my display stand, and it pretty well shows how the whole assembly mounts to your veeder root. I will have this display unit at Peotone with me to demonstrate just how the unit works. I will also have several kits packaged and ready for installation, with me. If you are interested or have any questions, please give me a call at any time. 701-739-6133
Kits sell for $150 plus $12.65 shipping, but are delivered to Peotone for free.

The kit from Kevin was amazing. Everything fit perfectly!!! Not like other kits you buy nowadays for cars etc. - where you need to start elongating holes, run to town for addition hardware etc. I had it installed and running in 20 minutes. Hooked to my freshly rebuilt computer by JOE, is just ran like a new watch. Thanks for making such a complete kit with excellent directions and pictures available to the group. Jim

Thanks for the praise Jim! We wanted the kit to be all inclusive and easy to install. Seems like we hit the mark ok , as there have been no complaints and a lot of praise for the ease of installation!
I have kits in stock and ready to go if anyone needs one!

Iowa Gas is coming up fast, and I can bring some of these kits along to save postage! If you're restoring a pump, it isn't complete without one of these kits installed!
