Are you talking about a hilborn-style mechanical pump?

Waterman used to make and sell the kit. From what I know they no longer sell it but maybe there are some floating around for sale? Contact Waterman though, maybe they have some of them left.

I bought the last of them years ago when waterman disco'd them.
There's really not much to the kit. The cam drive spud was the most valuable piece.
Weld a piece of female 3/8" hex to the end of a cam bolt and you could make your own pump mounting bracket any way you want.

You're still going to want an electric pump to prime the system. Once it's been running, the remaining fuel in the rail is typically enough to get it started again. But unless you mount your fuel tank to the roof, the mech pump will never draw it up to the top of the motor at cranking rpm x .5

Waterman still make cable drives though. And with a little creativity + cable drive, you could mount the mech pump almost anywhere you'd want. T1 is running them off the GTR bellhousing.
