1988 rover 3.5 pulley alignment

[en]

I notice the water pump pulley and crankshaft pulliey don't line up very well.
I checked a second engine and found the same thing.
Is this a design feature or am i missing something?

Thank you

Has the crank pulley been taken apart? There are a few shims/spacers in the crank pulley so you can make some adjustments.

I don't know the history of this engine, but i was supprised to see both of the engines in my garage have the same misalginment

Interesting. I know on the TR8s the power steering pump is off by a tiny bit but the water pump and crank pulley are spot on.
