Re: [AMC-List] FWD: wanted: man flywheel for 1967 J3000 232 six(short water pump)

I had no idea the short water pumps were used in the big Jeeps in the
early days. Probably the 65-70 Kaiser Jeep, as the 230 OHC the AMC 232
replaced  is a relatively short engine.

The stretched Jeep is the CJ-7, just to be picky!! ;> The extra 3" was
needed to get an auto trans under there. They used an inch or two under
the hood so that a standard length water pump could be used as well --
one pump for all six cylinder engines.

" Just a side note -- that short water pump was also used on 71+ CJ-5s,
in

" it should be the same; afaik all '65-'71 jeeps are just like all
" '64-'71 amcs.  there are no engine differences i know of, save the
" very short water pump amc only used on the '65 american.

yes, up to '74 or '75, when the cj's wheelbase was stretched from 81"
to 84".  the big jeeps used it originally; i don't know when they
stopped.
