No problem on these pumps, they are commercially available (USA made) at the wholesale level.
Much different pump.
There are about 10 or so different diameter accelerator pump cup leathers. Several of these I either have to mold myself, or if there is significant demand, there is an American company that will mold a minimum of 2500 of one diameter.
They range in size from about 5/16 inch to one used by Cadillac on their V-16 that was 1 1/2 inches.
