most pumps will look brand new (gasoline bath keeps them really clean ) ,the filter is what gets filthy and black , the stock pump would have the metal isolator can between pump and hanger output pipe , and will also have a black foam insul wrap around it(racetronix now supplies the foam sleeve like the OE had)
, if it was an aftermarket pump from racetronix i beleive it would be dated with a engraving pen , and those aftermarket pumps cant be used with the OE isolator and require a peice of fuel line and clamps to connect the pumps output.
dont forget to do the gas filter while your at it , when i dropped my filter and dumped it out it was full of aluminum particles from the pump that wore out .

are there any stampings on the pump ?

im sure jack from racetronix will chime in , he seems to have radar when you mention his products . thats A+ customer support like none ive ever seen before .

on the side of the pump under the black sleve i looks like someone engraved it with a pen and it says2699
9134

Also on the injectors it says in really small letters 280 150 218 and above that it says 022

i was just wondering if that meny they where bigger than stock or stock. because i am gonna change my turbo to a ta-49 and i was gonna get 42lbs injectors and a whole slew of other parts.
thanks

The fuel pressure will track manifold pressure.
The pressure will not stay put.
