Title: I need a water pump and pulley for a 215
Post by: Jahdave on July 02, 2018, 10:46:13 PM
Hi guys,

I inadvertently threw out my old corroded water pump, including pulley, and am having a difficult time sourcing one.  Anybody have any spares, ideas?  I'd babe so thankful if someone has a spare.

Thanks,
David

Water pumps are still readily available - here's one from RockAuto...but probably available from all the major auto parts stores.

Some available on ebay but are pricey
The pulley might be a bit more difficult to source....but you might try D&D   (chrome plated pulley part no. 9604)

I believe that my water pump pulley is a redrilled Big Block Chevy item.

free postage in UK, might be worthwhile checking it out, it's a non BL replica, but should be OK from the club, fits my Vitesse 3.5 fine.
