Paul,
I'm just starting the disassembly / inspection of my 20B for the purpose
of an aircraft conversion.  The thing that seems to be worrying me the
most is the water pump.  That thing is huge, or at least it sticks up in
the air a mile over the top of the engine block.  And....the pump is
cast iron in an aluminum housing....very heavy!!  Is there some way
to modify, or preferably another pump that will mount in its place that
will solve these issues?  This thing will NEVER go inside the engine cowl?

Thanks again!!
Don Mitchell

No problem. Not to worry.
I'll give you a step by step on how to cut it down with pictures. I
did one for Bulent and his is working and cooling fine. Later today.
