Sorry for the mistake. So, don't have a BB but a V8 model 18 or model 40... don't know which. It has the 157" chassis and dual rear wheels. It has a power accesory outlet in the gearbox. It has a flat bed, once surely with stakes, as it has six rectangular holes on each of the sides of the flatbed, and four in the rear. So, if I get it correctly, the original type of engine had the water pumps in the head. That it exactly what this one has. It will not be a show truck, just a good looking driver, but if I could get the correct pumps, I would prefer to have them. Would anybody have a set available? Thanks, Victor

hi Victor BB motor was a 4 cylinder and only had one water pump in the head, a MODEL 18 and 40 V8 engine had them in the heads, and where used from 1932 1933 1934 1935 1936 and for the most part were the same,if you go for judging you will have to find out exactly which ones you need, grease fittings or not, and access for the temp gauge if truck if so eguipped,etc etc, either in head or in block are being made, but I would opt for FORD Originals if can find, but anything is better then none... and send to SKIP HANEY to have rebuilt. he advertises in the V8 FORD TIMES, hope this helps 37RAGTOPMAN

Just to mke sure you have the correct motor, where are the pumps located? On the heads or on the block? The correct motor should have them on the block. I don't believe tghe head mounted pumps are reproduced. If you need them you will either have to find a NOS set or find some used ones to have them rebuilt. If you have the later motor with the block mounted pumps you can get new pumps from Bob Drake, Speedway Motors or a variety of V-8 parts suppliers.

Hi everybody: I am new to the forum. I just bought a 1934 BB flat bed truck. It hasn't run for about 30 years. To my surprise, at some point, the water pumps were removed and never replaced, probably to correct some problem which was never finished. Where can I get the correct water pumps for my truck? Any info on what years used the same water pumps? Thanks, Victor
