Pretty cool video.

[which water pump?]

Ended up swapping the timing chain cover and using a 69 style pump; have been told this will work.

[which water pump?]

Hello, I am changing the motor in my 69 convertible from the original 302 to a 1985 351w. I know the water pumps are different but can someone refer me to the correct water pump used for this change?

 

Thanks,

 

Kyle
