Also is there a difference between a standard water pump and one for A/C? This is Arizona and if an A/C pump cools better I would like to go that route. 8147291-image.jpg (51 downloads) 69.5 A12 Bee, first purchased in 1976, car 169 on registry 69 Coronet R/T 440/4 spd 69 Coronet 500 Conv H code 383 4bbl/auto 37 Plymouth PU Find your spot on earth and ride it.

That's good to know, how do you tell the difference between A/C and non A/C, anybody got measurements? 69.5 A12 Bee, first purchased in 1976, car 169 on registry 69 Coronet R/T 440/4 spd 69 Coronet 500 Conv H code 383 4bbl/auto 37 Plymouth PU Find your spot on earth and ride it.
