Diecon Marine conversion parts Kubota v1505

[chphotographic]

G'Day,

Just bought an Easton catamaran with 2 Kubota v1505, the Marine conversion was done by Diecon some time around 1992 I believe. So far I have taken off the water pump">raw water pump to find it is basically stuffed, (shaft scored, body pitted, etc.) And the heat exchanger boots are dry and cracked (one ripped coming off).

I have been trying to find parts, but with Diecon gone I have not found anything yet. I imaging the water pump and boots are common to another engine....

Does anyone know of other water pumps or boots that will fit?

Here are some details on the pump and boots:

Pump:
It is very similar to a pump used on the very popular Perkins 4-108 engine (3270-200 JABSCO PUMP) it has many of the same measurements and takes the same impeller; I would guess it is the same pump body BUT with a different shaft. The shaft has a male bit and the Perkins has a female bit.

boots:
Marked Diecon M8, the exchanger is OD (there for inner end cap ID) is 3” The bigger part of the boot is 3.5” ID

thank all
