Today I put it back on the frame along with the radiator. When I got it in place I noticed that the fan blade goes to the bottom of the radiator. I know I have the proper fan and radiator, what I don't know if the water pump is correct. Has anyone heard of a high mount water pump for the 235 6 cylinder.
Figure I need to address this before I go any further.

My fan sits a bit low as well but cools the engine (261) just fine. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 1,554 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 1,554 | I believe pre68dave sells these, contact him on this site.
