Thanks very much for the pointers. I've spent so much rebuilding my 901 [for a 2L vintage racer] over the years, I think I could have found someone to put Hewland guts inside for less. Rules don't...

where can I find a good/new 901 1st gear slider?

I know there are boxes of used ones around, being re-cycled but mostly no good. I've done that.

Does anyone sell these - that aren't obscenely expensive?

Many thanks,
Gavin

Walt - you were right on with the guess on the spun bearing location: #5 [the intake valve made slight piston contact]. The pump was indeed a very early version, and it looks like over the 5 track...
