Matt306 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 I have acquired a Vitesse 1600 Engine to drop into the Herald at some point (hopefully before next years RBRR). It didnt come with some bits, one of which is the water pump.I have checked Canley Classics web site and it lists a part which doesnt seem to appear on other engines. In short what Water pump can i use on a Vitesse 1600 engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glang Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 You need a standard GWP201 pump. I think the part number you refer to is for a component of the pump which isnt now available separately.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt306 Posted July 24, 2017 Author Share Posted July 24, 2017 When you say standard I have one from a herald 13/60 will that work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Pretty sure the "offset" is wrong, so the fan belt won't run correctly. Otherwise it is about the same. The pump you need is any vitesse/gt6/tr6 type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt306 Posted July 24, 2017 Author Share Posted July 24, 2017 Ok I know the later heads were machined differently, dies that make any difference to the things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Nope. 6 cylinder pumps all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glang Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Housing? I thought we were talking water pumps.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt306 Posted July 24, 2017 Author Share Posted July 24, 2017 Quoted from glang Housing? I thought we were talking water pumps.... Having re-read my OP I didnt make clear it was the housing i was after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPearce Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 In that case...The 6-cylinder housing is different from the 4-cylinder but is common to all sixes, I think. Certainly the very early Vitesse 2L housing is the same as the last GT6 Mk3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
