Informative thread that Keith started about 4 cylinder water pumps a few years ago. Unfortunately, the picture sharing web site he used has since shut down, but you'll get the idea.

www.amesperformance.com has the 4-stud pump, too. Btw, that Tempest looks wicked, like a '60s kustom from California! Very nice...

Checking the Flowkooler website, They showed one. Don't remember if it was for sale outright, or if they would rebuild yours with their machined impeller. A little pricey compared to the auto parts store, but a very nice piece.
