Default Re: Water pumps

I prefer the 8RT or 8ba pump on these engines they fir on both the 37/48 and the 8bA series just plug the the rnostat bypass hole same as the EAB heads hicopressio oon the early engines As for the water pumpsI install the 8ba narron passenger pump on the driver side pump use an alternator and no fam just an electric one, The new cars haven used a mechanical fan in over 30 years. also an in tank fuel pump would be a good move

I made the mounts on the tractor to accommodate the 8RT pumps, it just worked out better.
