[GFS] WATER PUMP LISTING IS WRONG AT AUTO PARTS STORES

[archangel1390@xxxxxxx]

John,
 
    I really appreciate you taking the time to e  mail the photos of the 2 
water pumps for your 1957 Fury 318 engine.  Both or your pumps are the same as 
my water pump on 1956 Fury 303.. However  the gasket that most of the parts 
stores are selling has changed. The  gaskets look the same-------exactly the 
same-------until you put them together  like in the photo below. Then you see that 
they are not even close. Then you  start to turn them left to right and 
upside down but at no points do they  match.
Be careful if you ever need a gasket. Take the pump with you to the  parts 
house or they will tell you that you are mistaken----------but it is their  
books that are showing the wrong gasket.
All the Parts stores new books show that the 318  engine is the same from 
1957 to 1992. They only show one 318  engine and it is not the wide block that 
was made up until 1966. This wrong  listing could effect the 277,and the 301 
engines in 56 and 57 Plymouth V8's as  well as all 318 wide block 318 produced up 
until 1966.
 
                                          SEE PHOTO BELOW
Ron
