Water pump Pulley?

I have a 455 with a tall 6" water pump and looking at this set of pulleys for my motor, but I'm concerned the water pump pulley isn't right 5 7/8" depth... I haven't been able to find the answer yet and figured I would ask the fellas on here next?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Oldsmobile-...8/382770281792

Thanks for the help and info!

its not clear from the ad but it lookslike he may be stating for use w a 5 7/8 (6") water pump. Generally speaking you cant mix and match pulleys but you must use them in sets that work together and then w the correct water pump.

I would send the seller a question asking what the 5 7/8 value is

I did ask them a few days ago, but haven't got a response back yet. You know how that can go with stuff you find on ebay, may just have to spend more and get CVF
