The new impeller is indeed, smaller in diameter. Pull the old water pump assembly out first, to make sure of the size. If it has been replaced previously, it could be the newer type. If not and you can not get the older, larger impeller, you will have to buy the entire water pump kit. That will have all of the parts that you need.
