When everything is in place and you need to move a bit more or less fore and aft for a perfect alignment - I had to use a press and push the four bolt pulley mount on the pump shaft back toward the engine. It's not a mammoth amount of force required (if the shaft is shiny and clean).

The only I have noticed is the water pump pulley has some play in the centering hole where it slides on the water pump. There is maybe 1/32 to maybe a 1/16 inch gap on the centering shaft. Does that mean anything? This means that you have a truck pulley on a car pump. You need a car pulley and then everything should line up.

The truck is a 63 as well. It had a 1/2 inch crank pulley on it previously which I found out was the wrong one so I switch to the 3/8 inch crank pulley which match the water pump and gen pulley.

63 Y block but what year truck? if you had a wide belt in a 63 that was incorrect. someone put an earlier motor in a later truck. sounds like you now need the mating later components.

If this works, here is the old style truck pulley setup. It worked! as you will note the fan is separate from the water pump, the later trucks the fan was mounted on the same pulley as the water pump. Still need to know what you are shooting for the earlier or later setup?

You don't mention what year truck? It sounds like you are trying to match a car dampener with an early truck setup that used the raised fan mount that had the wider belt for the fan and a separate belt for the water pump and generator, I have an original setup outside I will go take a picture of, but I think you are going to need the mating parts from either a later or earlier setup.

I think this is one of the most confusing things with parts swapping a Y-Block. I've never seen a parts reference list with what parts fit together. It would be a nice project for someone. Part numbers and pictures would be really nice. Or am I making too much of it? Chuck
Y's guys rule! Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.

just parted out a 292 from aheavey truck,it used 2shiv pulley set up,spaceings quite diferent than light truck. the water pump had a 2shive pulley that lined up with crank pulley,also wp had large shaft. .one can move the adaptor but it is a job for a bit of care. to move the adaptor a puller and a bit of heat will work. to push it in you need a press and it is imperitive to suport the shaft ,not the impellor.ether way you will have a basterd i regards to replacement. Now is the time to sort the problem so you have a stock system. good luck
