Ok, so then you've converted over to the long style water pump and no longer have the short style pump as your car came originally (with alternator on drivers side)?

Here is a way to take care of all your problems. Take the OLD hump heads and DUMP them to some guy that wants them for his project. Get a set of Vortec heads and bolt them on and you will increase your HP by at least 30HP and a lot more TQ. These are with out a dought the best heads GM ever came up with. They flow more then their famed Bow Ties and are a lot easer to get. Problem solved. I have a set on my 4410 lb. bracket truck and it runs in the high 13s with a roller cam and a set of vortecs. Gotta love the stuff thats cheap and makes power.
