455 6" Waterpump questions..

I'm wanting to know if there is multiple Waterpump pulleys for the 6" long Waterpump? I've got a 5 5/8" , wanting to see if there's a larger diameter pulley, thanks in advance

There's a number of pulleys made from 1964 to the 1980's that will bolt up but they may not line up. They may only be off by half a groove width, but that may be enough to throw belts or wear them out really fast. It's best if you can get a matched set, or tell us what the code is on your crank pulley so other members can try to match it.

X2 on that. It's best to get a complete matched set. (if you can)

Alas, Chris Wit had a database of pulleys with ID codes, diameters, applications, etc. Maybe he distributed it like he did the part number database and someone can look up what you need.
