commander Dave Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Thanks for all the help. Got the 27 outside this afternoon and saw and felt a groove in the shaft. I've contacted Rick but now am wondering about how to replace it. Any one out there done this? Thanks Commander Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STUDE48 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 yes you will have to remove the front balancer starter chain, and the distributor. to facilitate the removal of the front timing cover. inside the cover the drive gear is retained by a nut and keyed to the shaft. on the out side the impeller is retained by a tapered pin. accessed after the hoses and the housing are unbolted. shaft can then be pulled out of the casting.

commander Dave Posted February 8 Author Share Posted February 8 Stude48; Thanks for your reply. Quite a job for me, I got to looking at the repair manual and realized it may be biting off more than I can chew considering recent back surgery so I will try to find someone to hire. But I still need to find a good or new shaft. So' I ad a new request to the forum. Does anybody know where I can get a water pump shaft for a 1927 Big six?. Respectfully Commander Dave.
