We have the carbs off a 83 that has the small fuel pump diaphragm stems broke. Are these little stems in the rebuild kit?

I don't think so.  The clear plastic and the gasket is, but I don't believe the diaphragm stems are.

That's bad news. >:(

But, that may just work.  At least parts from it.  The fuel pump is a pretty straight-forward piece.  Some people remove it completely and just depend on gravity. You can probably purchase a new one with one inlet, one outlet, and the vacuum.  http://www.shopwizardscycle.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=197

Modify the mounting bracket and you'll probably be fine.  I don't know what the output of the Vision fuel pump is. I think someone here put an electric fuel pump on.

the stems are the same in the 82 fuel pump which should be plentiful..
