You need to be aware that there are two types of water pumps open back and closed back ,and all Tigers are pass. side inlet the open back pump nests in the
timing cover. we have used the Miladon pump in the past but now use Stewart Components pumps(escanaba mi) we also run the pump faster than stock to keep the flow up a low RPM’s, more than the Fairmount pully deal, we are building a 260 Tiger now and using a Ford open back pump that we had modified by
Stewart. we also plug the heater and bypass ports and use a modified 180deg Robertshaw thermostat that allows water to pass on warm up. and we should
have said we machine our own pulleys to suit the motor.
