It has the 2 ports, one for bypass, so it's not the same as old 235 or 216 pumps.
Do you mean 2 ports total or two pairs of ports (4 hose fittings)? My 1959 & 1960 261s had water pumps with two pairs of ports. I have never been able to find that at a parts supplier.

I do not know if the 261 water pumps that are now sold are just 235 pumps. I think they must be different, because the radiator hose fitting are different diameters.

Here is a 2 by-pass (4 hose ports) 261 water pump at Rockauto.com (wait a while for the pop-up page to load).
