Question on the '69 water pump/divider plate: my timing gasket set came with 2 water pump gaskets for 11 bolt, and I installed them both, one on each side of the divider plate. I don't recall if there was a cast or stamped impeller. That was also before the divider plate modification showed up on the site, and it still has about 1/4" clearance and no overheating issues except extreme (3+ miles in gear, TH400, 0-5 mph) conditions. When I tear down this winter and reassemble, should I install gaskets on both sides of the plate? I have no leakage issues with the cast-gasket-steel-gasket-cast sandwich.
