I need to replace the water pump on my ford 302. I don't see a part on iboats.com.
Can I buy one for a 75' Ford 302 from the auto parts store? Looks like the boat had less hoses than an auto and i assume i can plug the extra holes....

let me know what i'm missing.

Thanks! Ordered.

The pump will be here Monday and I'm looking forward to it. I do have one question at this time.

Removing the bolts that have not been moved in 37 years... I have a fear of something snapping off. My thought was to run the motor for a bit and warm it up before putting the wrench to it? Good idea or a waste of time?
