Howdy,
I hope you found that water pump!! If you didn't, I noticed that there are (2) "core' 292/272 water pumps on ebay right now for what I consider cheap since they seem to be hard tofind these days.
I would probably get both of them except I just bought a new (old-stock) pump from ebay a couple of weeks ago! I think I REALLY scored since it's in absolutely in "new" condition!
I also have an old water pump that is probably ok to use but is a little rusty and I do have a repair/rebuild "kit" I got from MACs a couple of years ago. so I'll rebuild mine to have a "spare".
I would suggest that whomever is looking for a pump, that you get one or both of those cores.
I don't know why, but all of a sudden, 50-60's Y-block water pumps seem scarce!
Regards,
Rick
