I have a 90 lx notchback and I just recently deleted the a/c, smog pump and powersteering. My question is since I removed these things will I have to change out the waterpump because of the rotation?

Here's what I did...

I went and bought the ford kit for a/c delete FMS-M-8511-A50. It moves the power steering pump into the place where the a/c compressor was. The smog pump didn't matter.

So now I just use a short belt.

Here's a pic of my previous set up. I basically had an idler pulley where the A/C was located. All I had was crank, alternator and water pump.

I would say unless you buy one of the a/c delete kit pulleys or an idler pulley to mount somewhere on the drivers side you will have to.

I have only the crank, alt(mounted on the drivers side) and water pump and I went with a standard rotation pump and deleted all the brackets and tensioner. I have the moroso kit for my alt. which came with a turnbuckle for belt tenstion.

I got mine from advance. I believe the part #wp641. If I had to do it again and I very well might have to I would do a hi flow from summit or jegs.

Go to autozone and ask for a water pump for a 1990 town car. it will look exactly the same as a 5.0 but the impeller and flow channels will be like the one above in the pictures of this red mustang. Its like 40 dollars.

Check out page 6 on the thread below. There are a few comments about ASP making a ribbed pulley for standard and reverse rotation water pumps. About halfway down page 6 is a red pulley the is probably what you need. It has two different bolt patterns.

New SBF alternator brackets - Page 6 - Corral.net : Ford Mustang Forums

Hope that helps,

You should be able to elongate the holes on the pulley and it will bolt up. I ran mine like that for awhile but the belt squealled. I bought the ribbed pulley from march.
