    INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

ITEM 3. INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE.

The following documents are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement:

(a) The registrant's annual report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1993.

(b) All other reports filed by the registrant pursuant to
sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 since the end of
the fiscal year covered by the annual report referred to in (a) above.

(c) The description of the registrant's Common Stock contained

All documents subsequently filed by the registrant pursuant to

prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to the registration

herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this
registration statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any

ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

        Not applicable.

ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS  AND COUNSEL.

        Not applicable.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

Article 12 of the Company's bylaws provides that each person who was
or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he
or she is or was a director or officer of the Company (or was serving at the
request of the Company as a director or officer for another entity) while
serving in such capacity shall, except in certain suits initiated by such
persons, be indemnified and held harmless by the Company, to the full extent
authorized by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as in effect
(or to the extent authority for indemnification is broadened, as it may be
amended) against all expenses (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, and
amounts to be paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by such
person in connection therewith.  Such Article 12 further provides that rights
conferred thereby shall be contract rights and shall include the right to be
paid by the Company the expenses incurred in defending the proceedings specified
above, in advance of their final disposition, consistent with the provisions of
applicable law then in effect.

Article 12 of the Company's bylaws also permits the Company, by action
of its Board of Directors, to provide indemnification to its employees and
agents with the same scope and effect as the foregoing indemnification of
directors and officers.  

Article 12 of the Company's bylaws also provides that the right to
indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding
in advance of its final disposition above shall not be exclusive of any other
right which any person may have or acquire under any statute, provision of the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws, or otherwise, and the
indemnification provisions of the bylaws shall inure to the benefit of the heirs
and legal representatives of any person entitled to indemnity.  

Finally, Article 12 of the Company's bylaws authorizes the Company to
maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any of its directors,
officers, employees or agents against any expenses, judgment, fines or amounts
paid in settlement as specified in the bylaws to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law then in effect.    

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the registrant has been informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

        Not applicable.

ITEM 8. EXHIBITS

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS

a.) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement, to include any
material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such
information in the registration statement;

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

b.) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

c.) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the registrant pursuant to the provisions of the registrant's charter, or
otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being offered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public  policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

                                 SIGNATURES




Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the
Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all
of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this registration
statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly
authorized, in the City of Seneca Falls, State of New York, on June 21, 1994.

To:  Goulds Pumps, Incorporated
     Board of Directors

Re:  Registration Statement on Form S-8


Gentlemen:

      I have acted as your counsel in connection with a Registration
Statement on Form S-8 to be filed by Goulds Pumps, Inc. with respect to its 1994
Incentive Plan to Increase Stockholder Value with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission"), pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.  Such Registration Statement may be amended, from time to time, by one
or more amendments at the request of the Commission, or on your own initiative,
either before or after its effective date.  The Registration Statement, as so
amended or to be amended, covers the shares of common stock, par value $1.00
(the "Common Stock") of Goulds Pumps referred to therein.

      I have examined originals or copies, identified to my satisfaction,
of such documents and records of Goulds Pumps, and such other documents and
records as I have deemed necessary, as a basis for the opinion hereinafter
expressed.

      Based on the foregoing, and having regard for such legal
considerations as I have deemed relevant, I am of the opinion that, subject to
an order or other appropriate action by the Commission declaring the
Registration Statement effective, the Common Stock, when sold, will be legally
issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  

      I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.
                                                              Very truly yours,

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

Article 12 of the Company's bylaws provides that each person who was
or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he
or she is or was a director or officer of the Company (or was serving at the
request of the Company as a director or officer for another entity) while
serving in such capacity shall, except in certain suits initiated by such
persons, be indemnified and held harmless by the Company, to the full extent
authorized by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as in effect
(or to the extent authority for indemnification is broadened, as it may be
amended) against all expenses (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, and
amounts to be paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by such
person in connection therewith.  Such Article 12 further provides that rights
conferred thereby shall be contract rights and shall include the right to be
paid by the Company the expenses incurred in defending the proceedings specified
above, in advance of their final disposition, consistent with the provisions of
applicable law then in effect.

Article 12 of the Company's bylaws also permits the Company, by action
of its Board of Directors, to provide indemnification to its employees and
agents with the same scope and effect as the foregoing indemnification of
directors and officers.  

Article 12 of the Company's bylaws also provides that the right to
indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding
in advance of its final disposition above shall not be exclusive of any other
right which any person may have or acquire under any statute, provision of the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws, or otherwise, and the
indemnification provisions of the bylaws shall inure to the benefit of the heirs
and legal representatives of any person entitled to indemnity.  

Finally, Article 12 of the Company's bylaws authorizes the Company to
maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any of its directors,
officers, employees or agents against any expenses, judgment, fines or amounts
paid in settlement as specified in the bylaws to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law then in effect.    

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the registrant has been informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS

a.) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement, to include any
material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such
information in the registration statement;

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

b.) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

c.) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the registrant pursuant to the provisions of the registrant's charter, or
otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being offered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public  policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

                                 SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the
Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all
of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this registration
statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly
authorized, in the City of Seneca Falls, State of New York, on June 21, 1994.

To:  Goulds Pumps, Incorporated
     Board of Directors

Re:  Registration Statement on Form S-8

Gentlemen:

      I have acted as your counsel in connection with a Registration
Statement on Form S-8 to be filed by Goulds Pumps, Inc. with respect to its 1994
Incentive Plan to Increase Stockholder Value with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission"), pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.  Such Registration Statement may be amended, from time to time, by one
or more amendments at the request of the Commission, or on your own initiative,
either before or after its effective date.  The Registration Statement, as so
amended or to be amended, covers the shares of common stock, par value $1.00
(the "Common Stock") of Goulds Pumps referred to therein.

      I have examined originals or copies, identified to my satisfaction,
of such documents and records of Goulds Pumps, and such other documents and
records as I have deemed necessary, as a basis for the opinion hereinafter
expressed.

      Based on the foregoing, and having regard for such legal
considerations as I have deemed relevant, I am of the opinion that, subject to
an order or other appropriate action by the Commission declaring the
Registration Statement effective, the Common Stock, when sold, will be legally
issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  

      I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.
                                                              Very truly yours,

                                                         /s/ 
                                                              E. B. Bradshaw
