Triumph TR6 - Need water pump...now which one?

My water pump started leaking today and Moss's site is pretty confusing to say the least in this area. They list CC# 800 and up or down...from 75 to 76 and some 74 so on and so on...my car is a 1974 vin# CF19905 with engine # CF19795UE my pump has an 1/2 inch belt with twin pullys in the front (used to have A/C on front groove) any advice?

Don, I get from the cheapest source. E-bay, LBC Co, Moss, VB, TRF...in the small world of British cars the one thing that holds true is there are not tons of factories pumping out parts...for the most part these parts come from a single source to maybe two sources at the most. Look for instance at lever shocks...you've got maybe two sources at the most yet prices vary wildly at times between parts houses for the same exact product. I doubt seriously that there are more then two suppliers building up TR6 water pumps.

Then I'd screw em all and have yours rebuilt. I did that on my Wedge
DON KELLY
