Ford water pump kits
 
I've just been asked to find a water pump kit for a late type sidevalve V8.
Power Train Products have two types of kits - one for single pulley and one for double pulley pumps. My question relates to the later 8BA motor (1949-54) - is the single pulley kit the same for this pump? It has an obviously different pulley from the early types.

Info to hand so far...
 
Not good news for owners of the 8BA Ford motors... it appears from talking to suppliers in Melbourne that replacement parts for these water pumps are no longer being made, even by the repro people in the US.
The good news is parts are still available for the single and double pulley pumps for the mercury motors as used in our favourite Fords.
The 8BA type pumps can be rebuilt by adapting parts from other pumps according to Automotive Surplus in Nunawading at a cost of around $A120.
