I *think* I have one, Part # is 50AE-8505-AA. I belive that it's an alluminum, but it's just sitting in my room either way. Make offer if you want it.

just about everyone will have an aluminum water pump. off the top of my head i cant remember what year they did the change over about 1979..which is when just about everything went reverse rotation..all old 200 L6 to 460 V8 should have a cast iron water pump. i don't have a TRW water pump buyers guide on hand to varifiy " the buyers guide has all the pictures of the pumps and it's spec's. worked in the auto parts 17+years.

hope i was of some help
