i bought a 79 chevy c10 short wheel base truck. It has a big block chevy engine in it. The water pump is bad on it so i need a new one but i can not find one that looks even close to this water pump. This water pump has a piece bolted on the top with an outlet the size of a radiator hose that runs into the front of the intake manifold which also has a inlet on it the size of a radiator hose. So can anybody help me identify where this water pump came from and does anybody know where i can get a replacement.

Is that a tall deck motor? The Td 366s and 427s used a pump like that with the big hose that runs to the intake.

You will need a water pump for a seventies school bus.
