PBR numbers and Lockheed numbers are often the same . PBR may use latter P , Lockheed use FC.
Hi John

PBR don't manufacture imperial sized cups any more . They sold all of the dies/moulds to a guy who apparently destroyed them or sold them off-shore. You may get lucky and find a store with some old imperial PBR stock, if you do, buy them all . My neighbour has had problems with the IBS imperial aftermarket cups made in Spain , leaking -weeping in a AT4 dodge truck , they are narrower cups than the PBR ones . We did think of using two of them in series eg 4 to each cylinder . Mike
