Which 5.0's had a standard rotation water pump?

Obviously not a Mustang, but what vehicle with a 5.0 had a standard pump?

I want to run my belt like this when i delete my P/S and go with a manual rack

rev rotation started with the serpentien belt. Prior to that they were standard rot.

Some pumps can turn either way. It depends on the pump fan construction..

slow95gt has his belt just like that on his car ask him what his water pump is off of.

I heard the reverse rotation cools the heads first to stave off detination in a high performace engine. I dont know if a standard rotation would really affect anything.

Interesting about cooling the heads first.

So how would you run no A/C, P/S and smog with a stock reverse rotation pump?

I guess you have to do it like this.

The elec water pump set up near the bottom looks sick.

I got a WP for a 85 Stang and a WP pulley for a 85 Thunderbird.

The WP is standard rotation and the pulley has grooves in it.

I would assume you could use a WP for an 85 Thunderbird also, though.
