Default Re: 1935 front motor mount

so the 37 style pump i put on the engine will not work. I have 37 style heads.
what would i have to change to make them work?



Rest assured, it will all bolt up, 37 water pump mount spacing is identical to that on 35...you'll need to sort radiator hoses etc...the bottom hoses to suit an 8BA will work, they have a slight kink in them and will take up the slight mis-alighnment you'll discover exists. Top hoses: a while back Bob Drake offered the top hoses to suit centre head outlets to 35-36 radiator, you'll need to possibly shop around to find a dealer with them in stock.

Thank you Brain. I already have the radiator hoses for the 35 to 37. So my fan set up on the 35 engine should work on the 37 block right.
