Will a 70's water pump work in place of a 69's on a 302? I want to have the inlet on the other side so that it is closer to the radiator port so that the hose is not crossing under the fan to get to the pump inlet. Thanks

you will have a problem with the timing pointer, can't see it. you can fix that small issue by changing the pulleys and accessory barckets but that's an expensive fix.
