Hey I'm trying to change my water pump to a standard rotating pump and cannot seem to find a pump that lines up with the other pulleys.
This is the pump I'm currently using and all the other pumps I seem to find with a standard rotation are longer like this one
Anyone know of a pump that would work for me?

You probably won't find one. When I used a forward rotation WP, I had to space out the crank pulley almost an inch, and fabricate the brackets to hold the alternator where I needed it to be. I just bought a March pulley set, and made everything match the WP standoff.

I found summit has a short standard rotation pump but was hoping there was something that came with one from the factory.

..and work your way down. I have a positive rotation pump on my 89 but I do not recall what it was from exactly. There's more info in this thread along with a pretty slick alternator setup depending on what you're up to.

@FoxMustangLvr might still have his hands on a part number somewhere.
