Do all Ford's share the same 4 bolt pattern on the water pump pulleys? The one I was running came off of a 200 6 cyl. Something moved--engine or the electric fan--and a collision happened, warping my wp pulley. I have located another one, but it doesn't have a part number on it. The guy says it came off of a Falcon or Econoline van 6 cyl, unknown size. The diameter and depth sound about like my old one, but I'm unsure about the bolt pattern. Anybody know if they are all the same size bolt pattern?
Thanks, Thack. I went ahead and bid on it. It came off of a falcon 6 cyl, so it should be a 170 or 200 I think, and the one I have now came off of a 200 in a Comet, so it hopefully will work. If not, back to eBay it goes...
Thanks Matt. Will know in a few hours if I get it or not. Only reason I was using a 6 cyl pulley was it was the only one that was small enough diameter that I found, and my crank pulley came off of a 73 Mav 302! Ford parts can be confusing sometimes!
I've got a 200 water pump pulley you can have for the price of shipping if the ebay deal doesn't go through. and FWIW, a 250 water pump pulley is different then the 170/200 pulley. The bolt pattern is the same, but the pulley itself has a larger diameter. When we swapped the 302 into Garrett's (koopstamaverick) '69.5, we reused the water pump pulley off his 170 as well.
I know for a fact that there are at least two sizes. I have several around here also if you need one. Most of mine are off of small blocks though. I'll do what I can to help clint
Thanks Clint. I was able with a BFH to massage mine back to health. One of the holes was wallowed out a bit, but the others were ok, so I went with it. I ended up removing the electric fan and putting on a 5 blade Ford flex fan. For now, it seems to be cooling fine without a shroud, when I put the AC back on I may have to go with one of the Taurus electric fans...
