[Healeys] Water pump and fan query for BN7

Thought about it but since I wanted to upgrade fan as well, and looking to break it apart to get at the pricey bearings I thought I would just spring for a new one. I will try to rebuild it and keep as a spare if I can get it apart and check all the parts for wear...

Regards,
Richard C

Have you thought about getting your water pump rebuilt rather than buy a new one?

Not sure about the water pump, but I love the stainless fan I got from David Nock at British Car Specialists. Easy to mount and works great! NFI, just happy with the performance. And while you've got everything out of the way, ever think about an all aluminum radiator?

The bearings on my water pump finally gave out so I am in the market for one and also think it is time to upgrade from the 2 piece four bladed fan that was on it.
The pump has the nut on the shaft for the pulley but unless the pulley is keyed on it looks more like it is pressed on although I do have a bit of motion of the pulley on the shaft. It seems most new pumps (Moss for example) have the pulleys now pressed on so I assume that is the preferred solution for replacement.
Re the fan I was looking at a six blade but saw no fans in the Moss catalog (NA?) as they look for a solution I recall to rivets popping on the metal ones and not sure re the plastic blade solution.
Looking for any feed back on obtaining a new water pump and an upgraded fan blade.
Thanks !
