The water pump, which I believe is original, on my 1954 Chev 235 Hydra-Matic pickup has a casting number of
"GM 2932 A" under the pulley on the ramp of the housing. There are no other numbers on the body. Generally, I see early 1950s 216/235 water pumps with the casting number "839403" on the radiator hose inlet. Can anyone shed some light on my pump number?

The water pump body would be 839403 for probably 1941-through 1955-1st series (small Chevrolet trucks, at least).

What is the size of the pulley groove?
1953 through 1955-1st had a 3/8" groove

Different groove sizes and pulley diameters were used in different years and on car vs trucks.

Maybe someone knows GM 2932 A?
