Need some help. What pump does this cast iron top fit. It measures 15.5" wide, 7" tall, the globe opening is 6" wide. It has 2 small holes on the bottom near the edge in one side. A larger opening on the top off to one side. There are 3 mounting points on the underside. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Don't think it is either of the above.
Wayne 515/519/615/619 have 3 screws that hold the globe on, this has 4.
I'm leaning more towards a PENNSYLVANIA or a RAYMOND.

Thanks for the replys guys.

Dick, It has 3 screw holes to hold the globe on, one screw is missing and you can see that hole near the top edge in the last photo. It has 4 small holes at the base of where the globe mounts to allow water to escape. Two of those are visible down lower in the last photo which is likely what you saw.

It does look very similar to the Wayne 515/519/615/619, but I was told in the past that they did not have cast iron tops.

I saw this auction on ebay for a Wayne 345 and the top looks very similar: http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Mobil-Pre-Vi...e#ht_1137wt_849

The pipe coming out would explain the large hole in the top and the rounded part covering the globe opening would be removable. Based on Jack's book the Wayne 275, 276, 302 an 456 have a very similar tops as well and the house hung on a bracket on the side of the top which might explain the 2 holes close to the bottom edge of the top. They would likely also be cast iron like my top. Does anyone have a Wayne 275, 276, 302 or 456 they have compare this top to? Thanks for any assistance.

Cast domes for those style pumps is quite a bit different in the way they attach to pump pipes. Keep looking.
