1968 BARRACUDA - 440 Water pump housing

I sanded the chrome thermostat and i also purchased a mr gasket thick gasket with rubber inlay. if that makes sense not sure that i am explaining that right but i am sure you guys know which gasket i am reffering to.

any ways... leak isnt as bad but still getting a few drips.

440 source ... here i come.. (new water neck)

nice having this place to vent, feels like we are all tackling this together.

thanks guys for the gauidance.
