I was a bonehead and only bought one connector. I had to pay almost $20 for shipping to the U.S. so before I order more, I am just looking to see if anyone else wants some of these. I can ship them flat rate envelope (to you) when they arrive.
They sell for $15 australian dollars each, so figure about $26 US dollars plus shipping from Illinois?
Q&A: Why do you want these?A: to upgrade your fuel pump to use heavy grade (8-10ga wiring) and bypass your stock connector. Is that really necessary? A: Probably not. But I am copying Savington's build for the most part, and it's the most elegant solution I have found thus far. Can I source these parts locally for much less money? YES (Probably). The problem is I haven't found a supplier that can verify that the internal components to this bulkhead connector are e85 compatible. If you can find a source for all the parts locally I would be happy to cancel my order and buy through you. Heck, I'll even pay the same price and not pay to ship them from Australia. When will I be placing my order? A: How about Sunday the 11th of February? I will commit to waiting that long. If a significant number of people are interested I will make two orders but if nobody expresses interest I won't wait any longer than next Sunday. When will I expect to receive my parts? A: I had my last shipment sent via international post which took seven days from the time of my order to arrive at my post office. Add a day for me to get my **** together and figure a couple days on top of that for the part to arrive wherever you are. Figure just under two weeks from when I place my order? I think I can hit that number.
Dam, looks like I need to machine a few dozen chunks of delrin with little o ring grooves.
As I mentioned in my original post, if you have a source for the same materials I am more than happy to buy stateside. I just don't have the time nor the expertise to source or fabricate it myself.
If I use that connector instead I can offer two people a pair for $20 plus shipping?
EDIT: Already ordered. Bahurd, if you want a pair of the radium bulkhead studs let me know.

One of the requirements for the Radium studs: Material Thickness: 0.262"-0.322". Hard to use out of the box for a Miata tank.
Yeah, I saw that. I wasn't sure what the thickness was on the Miata fuel pump hangar(?). I figure I can find a way around the thickness thing. If not I can just donate them to a friend who has a fabrication shop and he might be able to use them at some point.
