D'OH!


> I have a 73 pump and pulley, but I don't think the pulley offset will work as it used the accesory slot IIRC. It was an AC car, but A/C was on drivers side. Can you measure the back of the pulley to the pump resevoir? I can measure mine and compare.

I have a "late model" pump, no pulley.

I have an "early model" pump, with pulley, but wrong
mount-to-pulley-groove depth. It uses a different pulley style so
I can't interchange.

I can determine the correct mount-to-pulley distance though with
the early pump (simply subtract the center to center distance) and
I'll email to you.


(See why I'm always wary of 'oh it just bolts in' suggestions for
swaps? :-) This is why I gave up on the manual trans at this late

point. It's all in the details... )
