Hi,

Water Pump Pulley for an early V8.


Hiya JJ.
How early is early? I have a few V8s in various stages of canibalism. Do you know what diameter you need? P5B/SD1/RR/110" ?
Any photos?
Cheers.

Cheers for the reply.

I'll have a measure up and get some photos tomorrow.

Cheers.

StrangeRover,

I've attached images of the cone the pulley fits onto. The engine is believed to be from an old RR.

I forgot to measure the diameter!:o

Cheers.

That looks like a very early (70s) RR. The WP centre is higher than the road-going V8s and would have had a steel fan bolted on the front (4 bolts) and a steel pulley on the inner face (3-bolts). Sorry not got one. But....
If you intend running with a viscous fan the pumps are interchangeable as are the crank pulleys. The pictures show the later (70s-80s) set-up. Hope that helps.

JJ if you read the engine number off the block between the exhaust ports I can tell you where it came from. Will have CR there too.
