Water pump pickup hose from passenger to drivers side
I appreciate the help! I thought I would update on what I came up with for a solution. After looking at the issue a bit longer I came to the conclusion I really didn't want to cross feed the water pump. I ended up keeping the original drivers side pump, I have what seems to be the rare sb bolt on metal timing marker so it does work like this. I marked the HB at 0 20 30 degrees. I also have RPM heads and the Summit alternator bracket worked fine with them after I made a couple of spacers for the bolts that hold it to the water pump. I needed to move the water pump and crankshaft pulleys out .5" so I turned a piece of 6061 to make a spacer for the pump pulley. I just happened to have a 4" round billet of the stuff. It's not pretty as I didn't dress it but it's accurate and functional. If my research is right the BC on the HB is the same for 426, BB, and SB Mopar so I ordered a spacer for the 426. It's all I could find. If that doesn't work I'll make one. I also turned down the length of the water pump fan spacer .5" to maintain the same distance to the radiator. Anyway I appreciate the help! Go Mopar!
