Default Accusump

Would like to put one with the solenoid for pre-oiling. Where is the best place to get what I will need, and tech support?

Here's a good place to start. They have a kit for the C5:

I used them for an Accusump in my '66. They were good guys and helpful every step of the way.

There is a current Accusump thread in the AX&RR section of CF.
There have been several threads there in the past, too. Several
regulars have them mounted in C5's and have posted tips & pictures.

If you have not already obtained a copy, then consider downloading
the manual from Canton. It contains essential reading on the
set-up, operation and maintenance of an accumulator.
Car Shop Inc is one source to consider for the accumulator(s).

Regards,
Ken R.
