[Healeys] [Healeys} still too hot

Rich,

I knew sooner or later you would come up with the correct answer.  The
reason 
for the question originally was that my 100-6 does have the larger
pulley.  The 
one I took off the MkII 3000 has the 4 1/2 in pulley.   Just
wanted to confirm 
that one of the P.O. hadn't replaced the water pump with
the wrong one.  May I 
ask where you found the info?  I searched all my
manuals and coundn't come up 
with pulley diameters for the various years and
model.

Thanks for your input
Ron

Hi
Ron,

It's the 4 1/2" pulley, 3/8" wide that should be on your Mk 2. The
larger 
pulley was on the earlier 100/Six engines.
