1963 shp

Water pump bolts that bolt pump to block, lock washers or not as the kit did not include lock washers. Thanks in advance.

Jerry,

Here's a 63 340HP that might answer some questions you have.

Nice 340 undergoing restoration. Ignore the blue silicone sealant.

I believe there are no washers on bolt in the passenger side lower water pump hole, as well as the driver's side upper water pump bolt, though I've seem there on some cars. The stud that attaches the pump through the lower passenger side hole also does not have a washer against the pump. The alternator brace bolt, that passes through the upper passenger side pump mounting hole, does have a lock washer under the head of the bolt. The idler nut has a flat washer and a lock washer under the nut.
