does anyone remember who makes, or used to make, a water pump for sbc[ ] that was cast with a body that was 3-4" "taller" than stock that re-positioned the fan in a higher position ? i just want to see how they did the casting. i have something in mind along those ideas i mite want to try. thanks in advance !

the zips one rodstrace links to uses the 6cyl pump, but i noticed the snowhite one ron mentioned uses an opal pump that you drill out the mounting holes from 7mm to 11/32". that's according to their instruction sheet[s]. the one thing i don't like about either riser, is the way they both mount the alternator and ac pump [if used] up high. i like to mount all the stuff as lo as possible so you don't notice it as much. i have a couple of ideas floating around in my [tiny little] brain and i need to gather up some material to test my theory. i'm thinking those risers "might" fit hot heads adapters, but i wouldn't be suprised if the adapter and/or the riser would need some slight mods to go together correctly.
