Let me advise this...
Check to make sure the fins are tack welded to the rotor.
Don't ask how I became aware mine wasn't....
I pulled the entire pump shaft out of the bearings and impeller twice before by shifting at 7k with a solid mechanical fan. (two weekends in a row)
Both times it took the radiator, shroud and upper hose out.

I run twin electic pullers.
I run electric now, but this was a long time ago when the pump came apart on a 440.I run twin electic pullers.

Interesting , two 426 hemi`s, 2 hot chevys, and a 505'' 440 , never had a pump come apart .

Yeah sure, why not? I run manual water pumps on both of my cars and they both have stroker big blocks making more than 600 hp. The Duster has a Cordoba radiator with shroud and clutch fan. All set up like the factory would've done it.
