Alvin,

Are you thinking of Pre '68 Dave's water pump relocation plate kit??? headscratch

This quote was taken from a recent thread about 235 water pumps:

I think this may be the link you are looking for: Water Pump Relocation Instructions Yes/No/Maybe so???

“Pre ‘68 Dave”, is the inventor of the water pump adaptor plate, so let’s give credit where credit is due. You can PM “Pre ‘68 Dave” directly to buy the plate, complete with instructions. I do have a copy though, so I’ll post it here.

Since you only have 2 posts and still in the “Moderated” status, you can’t PM “Pre 68 Dave”. He does have a email address “pre68bowtie@hotmail.com”.

You should also look at his website. http://chev235guy.blogspot.com/

You need to make a few more posts on Stovebolt to no longer be "Moderated". Then you can scroll up to 'Pre '68 Dave's post and click on his name...then click on Private Message and send him a message. Any responses will show up as a flashing red envelope next to your name in the upper right of this page.

54 Rusty,

I sent Pre 68 Dave a PM on your behalf and have sent him to this thread.

I also see you have a post in the Welcome Centre. I figure in a few more posts, you'll be past moderated status and can PM to your heart's content. smile
