we installed the march alt tensioner setup, alt bracket, p/s relocation, ect this weekend. no smog either. i drove the car for the first time and it was getting hot. so i came back, bought a new mark 8 fan/huge aluminum radiator, new thermostat, and then i wondered about my water pump rotation.
apparently it rotates (it should?) CLOCKwise from the front of the car? here is a pic of my pulleys/belt, and a video of it rotating YouTube - MVI 1840

my question is, am i rotating backwards or is this normal? i dont know if i should point my finger at this rotation issue for the heating problem or my old radiator/thermostat.
