<<Here's a pic of Barrie's engine with the shortened pump:

Compare that with the offset on Mike Moor's water pump pulley:

Dave is right in that originally it was stated that no change in either 
pulley was needed. 
 
However, Carl's pictures have cleared the entire mess up -- at least for me. 
I can see from the two pictures that the actual plane remains the same in the 
modification and therefore the pump pulley is in alignment with the crank 
pulley. The difference is in how far forward the remainder of the pump sits in its 
original configuration.
 
Overall, a very nice savings allowing much needed space. Thanks again to Carl 
for those pictures and to Barrie for "gettin er done."
