Ok I've searched and searched but couldn't find a difinitive answer!

What year of water pump from another ford vehicle will work on my 86-93 timing cover that is standard rotation (clockwise)? I'am replacing the reverse rotation because I will only be running the alternator, carnk and water pump pulleys.

I went to the parts store but they were little help.

Can I use Ford Racing # M-8501-G351 ? It says it is for v-belt applications. Will it work serpentine? It says:

Standard rotation V-belt aluminum water pump for 5.0L/5.8L engines
Standard shaft and bearing with stamped impeller
Provides good flow and pressure for engines that operate below 6000 RPM
Can be used with M-6059-D351 timing chain cover or stock V-belt timing cover



Somebody please help....................

Whatever the NAPA 55-4052 crossreferences to is what you want.


I saved some pics of someone'd standard rotation pump setup along with a part number from NAPA. I haven't actually cross-referenced it yet myself however
