I have one of Darryl's pulley for the Volvo aftermarket water pump, it works and looks awesome! Now I have a lifetime warranty on the water pump so if it ever goes again I can get a free replacement from any Autoparts store that carries the Airtek brand pump and the bolt on Pulley Darryl makes will make it that much easier to replace. Highley recomend it. As for the Fuel pump, go the vendor route...they have the new fuel pumps with the external threaded on checkvalve and their prices are just about the same as getting the Bosch replacement from an autoparts store.
