Im getting a little p/o's over here... I think I have tried at least 7 different ways for the water pump to fit... But so far, every time I THINK I got it, some stupid thing gets in the way... Currently my exhaust manifolds are basically touching the water pump with the pump located on the right. On the left, it was doing the same thing... The pump is all the way extended on its extender thinggy.. and everything is rotated down.
Stock exhaust manifolds only.. I know headers will fit anything. If need be I'll take a pic of what I have currently.. but im just to po'd to do that now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) |

Sorry, Andyrew, I have not been available lately. Been under the weather a little and had to slow down to a crawl for a short time.
The vintage of the motor mount should be the stock in trade that Renegade sold in about 1987. The spacers were used to level the engine and give it an alignment because of carb/float/etc. reasons. Used the motor mounts to keep the transmission lined. The mounts should fit normally since I was using a 1987 Chev 350 Caprice engine. If the fittings on the water pump can be changed, do it otherwise double clamp it to prevent what Brad says, "One quick acceleration will blow the hose off". Did that!!!Reason for double clamping, remember I made the conversion when all we had was typed sheets of information and a lot if it was hearsay. I still have a couple of your things so we need to arrange delivery. I need a list of the things you need since I may getting out of the 914 business altogether. If I have to get rid of parts, I will give you what I have. This situation is still tentative so do not hold me to it, but I need the list. Anything else? |
