Waterpump/Carburator for '56 Chevy six

[kuztomklaus]

Hey all you Hambers

I'm in desperate need of a waterpump for my "Lady Luck" She runs a 1956 235 cui. Do any of you know who to turn to. I kinda need an other carburator too since it's overflowing all the time and the choke broke a long time ago!

Thanks

ok, you will need a short shaft water pump since the stock water pump is too long for that car. You can buy shortened pumps for $99, or buy a 51-54 water pump ($20 on eBay) and buy an adapter plate $99 (yeah, it's the same price, but if your pump goes out, it's easier and cheaper to find an earlier pump than a shortened pump... trust me on that one) or you can shorten the pump yourself if you have all the right tools.

oh yeah, what kind of carb do you need? They come up on ebay all the time
