Here are the 2 water pump housings...


The one with the small amount of orange in the pic is off the 383. it appears to actually be a mopar part... HMMM...

I ran a straight edge across the face of both pump housings and dropped a caliper down to measure where it touches the angled part for the impeller to sit. The rusty one has a closer tolerance by about 8 thousandths... it also has smaller coolant passages.

Do i just replace everything??????
