My '68 289 came with a pass side outlet cast iron water pump. If I wanted to get a pass side outlet aluminum stock water pump what year car and motor would I ask the parts guy for?

Thanks,

65-67 Mustang with a 289 Hipo or as it is sometimes called in the parts book, a 289 "special".

Just be aware that the matching early style timing chain cover is required with this pump. These pumps and timing covers were also used on 260's.

Good Luck!

When you say early style cover which do you mean? Mine is a '68 cover. The Jegs pump is listed for '65-'69. I also ordered a new timing cover from Summit and it looks nearly identicle to my old one but fits '66 to '93.

I'd like to go to an aluminum pump just to get that chunk of iron off the front of my motor. I really didn't want to pay $80 for it though. I figured a factory aluminum would be a cheaper alternitive, but now I'm confused.
