And be careful undoing the bolts!
What he said ^^^One of my bolts broke off and because it goes through the oil pump housing, I had to drain the oil, drop the sump, remove the front pully, oil pump housing, exhaust y-piece, distributor and more and even then I couldn't get the stump out. Off to David Gerald in bits and a 2k bill once recommissioned to the road. Ouch.

don't buy cheap rubbish where your engine cooling is concerned, fit and forget.

Hopefully you will get your water pump bolts out ok.....I replaced mine with a stainless set as some of the originals were corroded from being exposed to cooling water. Think they are available on flea bay....just need to get the correct set for your engine as there are different front end arrangements on RV8.
