Are we talking about a 6 cyl? Switching to 4.0L waterpump (Grand Cherokee, which is centered fan)and pulleys/brackets moves the pump and belt away from the rad. If V8, the pre-Delco alt pulleys are closer to the engine and pump is shorter too than say Grand Wagoneer.

One more quick question .... Because I'm struggling with the length of the engine in my specific situation (e.g. the water pump "nose" is much closer to the radiator than I'd like .... it's a long story), my sense is that most any of the AMC V-8's would be 8 to 10 inches shorter than a 258 .... a couple of approx. 4 inch cylinders and a couple of water jackets shorter. Does that make sense.
