Thought I would post this for the V8 guys, I am one that like to use part numbers rather than trying to fab things up (most of the time). I found that Gates hoses, 21228 and 21391 have the perfect bends to fit the renegade pump and front engine fittings,with a little cutting. Buying an extra 2 of these I also was able to add a protective layer to each hose by slicing and zip tieing them over. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Well, I finally got my engine and tranaxle in. Had no idea how to do it, but within 4 hours, it was done! Unfortunatley, I did not get an answer to my question about the hose configuration on the water pump before putting the engine in. Does anybody know... I have a Renegade mechanical water pump setup (mounted on the drivers side) and I've seen some conflicting photos of how the two smaller water pump ports are connected to the front of the block(SBC)... in regards to which port on the water pump gets connected to which port on the front side of the engine? Does it matter? It seems like the water pump can be mounted in its bracket in more than one position. I think the whole pump can be rotated 90 degrees at a time until the pump to bracket bolts line up. Does this matter? At this moment, mine is mounted so that, looking at the rear of the pump, one small port is at the 10-11 o'clock position and the other is at the 4-5 o'clock position. The inlet port from the radiator is facing down or at the 6 o'clock position. Is this okay? |
