49-53 Water Pumps

[Smitty]

Can someone advise me on best source for 8BA water pumps. This would be passenger car pumps...new ceramic seal? Are all pumps sourced from the same place?

Thanks, Steve

I got a set from Carpenters and they are fine. Skip Haney in FL rebuilds them and some people swear by his. Someone will post his contact info...... Mark

Send them to Skip for a rebuild. That way you get your original pumps back with the latest tech and don't have to worry about them not fitting right. Google Skip Haney.

I am about to send Skip my ford script pumps to rebuild. I sent a 226 pump to him a few months back and it came back like new.
