Frontenac Water pumps: Who has one? Who knows about them?

I've got an empty housing of one as well as an impeller casting from Dan McEachern.

I've been searching for some info on these for quite some time, and unfortunately havent been able to find much.

If any of you fine gentlemen know anything, your knowledge would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Attached are a few photos.

Thank you for all those photos! I'm hoping to find some of the internals, as I'm not familiar with how they are assembled.
I know there were other companies like Ambler that made them as well as the reproductions done under the name "Parker"

Thank you for the photos!

Are any of you guys familiar with people that have these? I'm missing packing nuts, and am in the search for some. The OD of threads on either side of the pump are 1.30" and 1.21".
