Lists several alternatives, but not a Pinto.  Seems to me I did see one on a 
web page, but it had a home made sort of bracket to mount it.

As for rebuilding your existing one, check your local parts stores.  The 
rebuild kits are surprisingly available.  I would not recommend the Vicky Brit 
kit.  The one I got from them had deformed seals and did not work.

Do beware there is an issue with the rebuild kits in that  the TR-6 kit is 
nearly identical, and a number of vendors have combined the kits, to the 
Spitfire, and possibly GT-6 detriment.  The kit seals do fit, but are extremely 
tight.  Excessive drag results, with the poor pedal response.  It would be 
worth your while to check on the TR-6 rebuild kit part number and ensure they 
are not the same.
