The difference in the Factory Pump and ours is that ours comes with the original welded bracket on the motor instead of the separate bracket mount currently used by Sundance. Ours replaces the original welded on bracket found in your spa. We use the original motor manufacture (US Motors/Emerson)with the Jacuzzi Brands/Sundance Spas wet end used in that time period. Also the warranty on our pump is 90 days

• We only use a Viton Seal in our wet ends for long life. The viton seal is designed for harsh chemical environments such as salt, ozone and chemically treated water. Because of their better durability these seals are more costly than a standard seal used by most of our competitors.
• Please note: This can be used for other Sundance pumps by adjusting the position of the wet end. Simply loose the rear 4 bolts (this is a thru bolt motor) and turn the wet end to the position of the original pump then retightening the 4 bolts. We send the pump in the 6500-261 position which is the 1:30 position.
• * The 6540-171 Hose Barb is used on many of the Sundance/Jacuzzi Pumps (you would need to verify) and was originally made of plastic which eventually fails. Please note that the threads are NOT standard MPT threads and you cannot use an over the counter hose barb (from a Hardware Store). If you do it will strip the threads and cause leakage and ruin the Pump Housing (not covered under warranty). See the Related Products below to purchase this item.

• 2005-2009 (end date changes with different models): Sundance Spas went to the 6500-343 on most models listed.

Simply loose the rear 4 bolts (this is a thru bolt motor) and turn the wet end to the position of the original pump then retightening the 4 bolts.
