Subject: IML: water pump pulley
diameter?
Hello everyone:
What is the exact outer diameter of the water pump pulley for a '67
Imperial, 440cid, with AC, single belt?
I spent $80 (too much!) for a new aluminum one (way too
pretty!), that barely doesn't fit. Parts man said it was 6 & 1/2"
diameter - it actually measures 6 & 11/16". I think 6 & 1/2"
would fit with a clearance on the crank pulley of 1/16"
Do those measurements make sense? Is there really only 1/16"
clearance between the crank pulley & the water pump pulley? Is 6
& 1/2" the correct diameter for the water pump pulley on this
engine?
Thanks in advamce for any insight offered.
