The only source we found for 60hp water pumps is Little Dearborn (888/282-2066). The earlier, tapered type had leakage problems, so it you are planning to convert, the later style would be preferable. I don't know where you would locate the front mounting plate if that is required.

I don't believe you can get new pumps for a V-8 60.You might find som NOS pumps and there are rebuilt pumps available.

Is there any advantage to using the "straight" water pumps rather than the "tapered" kind that originally came on a 1937 Ford V8-60 engine? I know that the compatible front timing gear cover will have to be obtained to use the straight pumps. Are new and/or rebuilts available for both kinds of water pumps?
