pump for older Deltec skimmer

[polywise]

looking for an additional Ehime pump & external elbow pipe setup for my deltec AP1003 so I can make it a AP1004

My skimmer already has the internals and threaded female connectors
looking for setup to just mount up ..

Don't have any extra pump setups but I am selling an AP902 for $600 that has 2 working Deltec modified Eheim 1260 pumps.
It's crazy what Deltec wanted for one of these pumps, $500+!

thanks, but that would be a shame to just keep the (2) pumps, and toss out the rest.

Hi Jim,
It's just a term that Deltec/H&S referred to for their version of the Eheim 1260 pumps that they used in their skimmer lineups. Back in the day when I can actually remember something, they made a notch in the factory impeller housing and added their needle wheel impeller and charged $500 plus for a replacement pump. I remember buying a replacement impeller once from Doug @ the now defunct Deltec USA for $250 + shipping, Yikes!

Hey sorry if I don't understand but with all those pumps out there can you use a different brand and change the plumbing or buy an ehiem pump and change the pinwheel on the inside. I've seen threads where people make things, modify things and even event their own things , I'm sure you can come up with something
