V8S water pump

Where is the best place to buy a small footprint water pump, for the V8.??

No idea what a 'small footprint' pump is, but if you have the original engine then it will be a pre-serpentine Rover V8 and any RV8 parts supplier will sell you a water pump for it.

Maybe one of these ... Not sure if they fit the V8S though ??

There are 3 different versions of it...I thought someone might know which one of the 3 it is...TVR uses a different one from range rovers, so that it will clear the crossmenber...

Neither of those, I reckon it's GWP2149 (SD1 EFI)

I got one for the V8S donkey's years ago, from Rimmer Bros I think, and it took them thirty seconds on the phone to work out which variant I needed. It may well have been the SD1 one, tbh I don't remember. In any case if you contact any decent supplier familiar with the RV8 they should have no trouble figuring it out.
