Short or Long Water Pump?
Hey folks, I was looking for a new water pump for my 81 vette, and I see that they offer both long and short water pumps, and I have no idea how to tell what mine is, so can somebody tell me if the 81's had short or long water pumps? Thanks!

It is a special short one with a 3/4" snout for the pulley, they are heavy duty water pumps used in vettes and trucks. You can use a non-vette pump but you will need to change the pulley.
