I have one on my '56 Fairlane.  Went on great, had the same markings as the original one that I took off.  Been on there for about 6 months now with no leaks.

One thing though I would recommend stripping the black paint off that they come in.  I tried scuffing them up and that didn't help and my ford red engine paint has flaked off a little around the bypass tube.

Don't know about the quality of their products, but I've heard that some stuff they advertise isn't in stock & takes forever to come..

Has anyone tried the "New" water pump for Y-Block from Bob Drake Ford Reproductions?    Part # B6C-8501-B     Claims to be better design and new type ceramic seals?  Are they any better?
