Re: 54 waterpump rebuild

Corvette parts catalogs don't list rebuild kits for the early 6-cyl water pumps, so you'd have to shop parts houses on the internet if this is something you want to do yourself. If you're in a major metro area, try calling your local machine shop to find out who does water pump rebuilding. Typically, there are a few good ole boys left (I know of three local shops in Denver that do the 'deed').

Last, there are fellas who specialize in concours water pump rebuilding services on a mail-in basis. You'll find several prior references in the archieves as well as folks advertizing in the 'services' section of your copy of the NCRS Driveline magazine.

Hi Chester. Give me a call at home this weekend (NOT during the Daytona 500 ). I'll give you some names where you can send the pump to be rebuilt. Chuck
