here's the deal. i have an 87 nissan 200sx. the 302 and trans is mounted. i have limited space. i had a 95 GT for a parts car but with a bad motor. i buoght a long block for an 88 GT.

so here's my parts list:
88gt long block
front sump oil pan
front sump timing chain cover
edlebrock 4bbl intake mani
mac shorty headers
95 gt stant accessories + brackets
95 gt crank pulley

now, you probably already know the water pump is NOT compatable with the front sump timing chain cover. the only water pumps i could find have hella long shafts and wont work. my question is this, what water pump will bolt onto a front sump timing chain cover but give me a low rise (which is key as i have limited space) that will work w/my 95 GT stang accessories and crank pulley?

thanks in advance

if no one cant figure it out eventually, go electrical water pump

electric is cool and an option, but im on a budget on this build...

anyone have any ideas???

is it absolutely crucial that you use a front sump pan? have you tried fitting a double hump pan in there

I think the 94-95 stang has the shortest water pump, but I'm not sure if it will bolt up to the timing cover you have.

i think i already covered in my initial post that the 94-95 water is NOT hte same......


and yes, its absolutely crucial i use a front sump, otherwise i wouldnt be wasting my time and money.

anyone else?

Gary H

I know it's not the same. What timing cover are you using? There are several different styles. Or use the SN95 front cover and pump and drill it for a dipstick.

66-84 car w/front sump. same bolt pattern for the pump as a foxbody 5.0


sn95? you referring to the 95 stang one?? i was actually thinking about doing this but it seems to have disappeared into the blackhole that is my garage lol
