Hey do you guys know if the 11 bolt water pump would be the 11-bolt for early 69 cars (ames FN257D) or the 11-bolt pump for all V8s 1969 to 1979 (ames FN257H)? There are no pictures so I cant tell that way and my service manual/chiltons are no help... I googled around to try to find pictures or descriptions but to no avail...
You are right about the gradual approach on parts purchases. I cant have the wife mad at the bird! I am working on taking that stainless shroud thing off tonight (gotta file off all the dang rivets) so I should have better pics later on.
