The RIGHT water pump????

The RIGHT water pump????
Guys....HELP. Just bought a 70 Supreme Convertible. It's got lots of little "weird" things to fix on it, mostly emblem stuff. Someone who did no research restored it, so it is great in some ways, but they just seem to have "stuck" whatever they had on it...I'm correcting that. My real problem is that the car has a longer shafted water pump on the 350, and the pulleys are "off" line. Can anyone recommend WHICH pump to get. I have read every thread on here remotely discussing water pumps, but I need a more focused answer. You guys have seen it all between you, How would you proceed? I am looking to do this swap ASAP so as not to do any further damage to belts, etc, etc. 70 350 rocket w/air... non OAI
Thanks Guys,
Mark

I just went through this, what length water pump do you have? You may find that the parts stores don't have the correct pump lengths. if your doing it yourself, make sure you have the old pump with you so you can compare the lengths before you actually buy it.

Good answers, but what about this solution
Guys, I have found a 69-70 water pump that is 5.567 inches in the Fusick catalog. Joe, thanks for the info, and can you tell me if the shorter pump will work, and be OK. It seems that this shorter pump should solve all my issues, or at least be so close I won't worry about it. Any reason NOT to? dangers? concerns?
Thanks again for the feedback and help!!!
