The user agrees to the following terms:

All information that you provide to us for your membership is correct.
You will not use your membership to spam, harrass, or exploit other members in any way.
Vulgar, Abusive, Racist and Sexist Language will not be tolerated.
Commercial-type sales postings will not be allowed.
No mass posting or flooding of the boards is allowed.
No Advertising of parts or cars; no Ebay or business/commercial ads (please use the "Classified" for ads Wanted or For Sale).
VIEWING MULTIPLE TOPICS ON SCREEN: You can choose to see more than 10 Topics at a time ... Log In and choose "Preferences" from the top bar on the Forum page. Scroll down and Change the "Default Topics Returned" parameter to 25 or 50, and save the changes. Since this setting is stored in your browser 'cookies' (if enabled), it seems to use that stored value even if you are not logged in. So, if you use a PC that you haven't logged into the forum from, the setting still seem to remain at the default.
EXTERNAL PHOTO LINKS ON FORUM: You can still use external photo links in your posts on the new forum. They follow the rules of any link in that they have to have the URL link qualified down to the full image file name (example: .jpg). The links will open in a new browser window, the same as an uploaded image attached to a post. Since an image attachment to any post does not display inline with the post, the results are the same. You can use multiple external links within a post. This link is from photos on a site from Don Clink's 'Deuce@75' albums:

Using links from photo sites such as Photobucket can help in "size" issue with uploaded attachment files. For best viewing in web browsers, photos should be around the 800x600 pixel range, and probably not more than 1024x768. Most cameras today store HUGE jpg image files, as the default settings are in the 7, 8, 10, and 12Mb image sizes. The image files that are then attached are very large, and the browser can't display the full image size without using the scroll bars. Use the re-sizing functions of your photo editing software to reduce the image to 800x600, which reduces the file sixe and the image load time in the browser. Don uses Google's free Picassa3 software, which is an excellent photo management product. All of the photo albums of the Deuce, Grand National, and Auburn that are links on the NORG site were built using Picassa's web creation functions. And it's free? (THANKS to Don Clink for the info!)

Thanks, 40 Coupe. All the pumps I’ve been looking at at the 32-36 variety that have the spot for the probe. I’ll keep your post in mind as I try and suss it out.

The standard size is 5/8-18 straight thread. 34 water pumps did not have a port for the temperature probe. 35 is when the port started on the left side (Drivers) only. All of the early 21 stud engines with temperature probe port are the same size, they have a seat on the bottom of the hole for sealing from leakage. .

If you are sure that the bulb will fit into the space in the water pump, you can either drill and tap the hole in the pump to allow the temperature gauge fitting to screw into the pump of have a machine shop do it for you.

I did and they didn’t know (at least the guy I talked to). I didn’t think to ask about return policy

Did you call and ask them if it fits? If they say yes it fits, then ask what their return policy is if it don't fit.

Hi—has anyone tried adding an aftermarket water temp gauge to one of the CW Moss replacement water pumps? Do they need to be adapted in any way to do so? I’m looking at this set below (see link) for my 34 truck, and was hoping the threaded port was standard. The one on my current pump is a bit too small for a standard replacement gauge’s options (even though the bulb would fit)

Thanks in advance for any advice or recommendations
