i measured the wp and this is what i have
short pump 2: Fits all 1971-82 S/B Corvettes. Comes with heavy-duty 3/4" ball/roller bearing. Dimension from block surface to hub: 5-13/16"
so, i think the pulley is not correct.....
i also was able to figure out the ps pump...... i had it on the wrong side of the alt bracket....
now, i have to go buy another bolt for the bracket to mount it to the block then i will be able to see if the 1"cog belt will clear the ps stuff.....
thanks for the pics also.....

You have the correct water pump, so it must be the pulley that is wrong then! Hopefully you can get one to work properly, because that cog system looks pretty cool. Still waiting to see pics of those folding t-tops I sold you on your car!

update...
so jegs did send me the wrong wp... i have to send it back and i wonder if i'll be reimbursed for shipping....
so now my issue is that the ps pump interfers with the alt bracket...... i have the plain zoops brackets and they are a bit chunky to begin with.... i was thinking that i would just buy a alt bracket to mount on the pass side on the motor....well, cant do it cause i dont have 2 bolt holes in the heads for the bracket.... so now, my options are... try the original alt bracket and see if i have issues or get rid of the ps pump...... i'm also not sure if i can move the ps pump to the passenger side either.....
i should have just bought a march serp kit......wtf...
but i wanted the cog drive cause it's soooooo cool....haha

i got mine from the black mountain website... they are great... highly polished.......s/s hardware..... i'm still curious on the water pump pulley though since it doesnt have any sides to prevent the belt from walking off.......
