Here are some pictures of a cut down water pump (from the "other" list) =
I
did mine essentially the same way. Use a band saw to cut off the neck at =
an
angle, I used a router bit to take out the divider, then welded in a new
divider and welded on an outlet tube.
-----------------

Thanks for the pictures.  Fortunately, I'm not nearly that desperate.  =
I've
got plenty of headroom for the pump housing.  I just need to modify the
housing that bolts on top of the thermostat.  That should be easy, since
everyone agrees that you can weld this material. =20

Speaking of welding, it's something that I've always wanted to learn how =
to
do.  I bought a Henrob 2000 torch almost a year ago, and haven't even =
fired
it up.  As I start looking at the mounting of engine stuff (radiators, =
oil
coolers, tanks, exhaust, etc) I've come to the conclusion that I need to =
get
that torch out and learn how to use it.  I've put this off up to now,
because I just didn't feel like I had the time to practice enough to
actually trust what I welded, but now I think I need to at least give it =
a
try.  Anyone want to give me lessons :-)

Thanks again for all the comments.
